Bloody thing !!!

The Tiv arrived back at the garage yesterday.Charged battery and it started first time. Drove 3 miles home all ok.

Must have been the heat and old dodgy connections


I'm about to completely rewire the car starting with a newer fuse/relay box.
Also redesign the dash and sort out the heater / air distribution system

Wish me luck

My problem was not lack of battery power but hear affected electrics. Engine fans - both, heater fan, lights etc. All worked but no signal to the starter not even a click.
