i've had an intermittent fault now for about 6 months... car wont start and it was getting worse up until lately when it'll start only about 1% of the time!

basically it wouldnt crank when you turned the key.

anyway, after replacing just about every component used to start the car (starter, relays, switches, etc.) i figured i'd have a look myself today.

took about 10secs to diagnose the fault, the connector on the starter exciter wire was iffy and wasnt making a good contact. took all of 10seconds to fix too


so, guess i learnt a good lesson today, try the SIMPLE things 1st before throwing money at new parts
