No Ignition Lights
Posted: 21 Apr 2013, 14:52
Hello there. Great forum, it has been very useful up to now, thank you very much 
However, Im rather stumped today. I was having intermittent starter problems, dead basically, so whipped off, clean contacts etc and it worked for a while, then same thing again. I have also just rebuilt the carburettor and it hasnt been started since. I removed the gearbox to body earth today, cleaned it up, replaced it and bolt sheared off (cracked and rusty) and I thought, aha, this is my problem. New bolt, reconnected everything and now I have no ignition lights (battery or oil light on dash) and no starting or turning. Hmm, voltmeter on it and there is power to the starter, 12.8 volts. All fuses in glovebox checked and fine. Are there any other fuses anywhere please? Any ideas on above? Cheers.
