hiya guys
been having some trouble with starting the van, so changed the battery and alternator. haivng just put the new battery on the interir lights now work, but there is nothing at the front of the van (the ignition lights come on) but the starter motor wont do anything (it had always done enough so that i could jump start it before now)
any ideas? not too clued up on the old electrics by any means
thankyou

do you hear a 'click' when you turn the key?
might be the starter motor, or the bush that it sits in are shot. remove starter motor, test direct on a 12volt battery it should spin freely like.... an electric motor. Replace bush (copper like ring in the bell housing 30p from GSF) and or replace starter motor (£60 from GSF exchange) depending on how you found it to run out of the van.
