Hi, Iv looked on the wiki but cant seem to find any info about what fuse is for what!

When starting the van today.......click.....nothing else, so i fiddled about with the fuses and it stated but i dont know which one did the job.

Is there anywhere i can see a diagram of the fuse box please?

Thanks

Oh, mine is the 1.6 non turbo diesel.

Often with the "click, no action" scenario its either a faulty ignition switch (actually mine will do his once in a blue moon) or poor connections on the starter motor and simply moving in and out of the vehicle shakes things up and the connection is made again. You can therefore end up chasing the fault in the wrong place. If it happens again, check the two things I mention.

Have to agree, it does sound more likely to be wiring or switch related. Loose wire on the solenoid was my 1st "breakdown"

Sounds like the spade terminal on the starter motor :(

Nope, the thin 'signal' wire that goes to the starter has a 6mm female spade terminal on it, this and the wire are often known to decay.
