After a 10 year absence from TVRs, I have managed to find myself a lovely 1994 restoration project.

Noticed last night while working on the car that both lambda sensors were warm to the touch, with the ignition off, and the car not having run for several days. Quick check with the multimeter confirms a constant 12v supply, now I would have thought these would be switched on the ignition? Is it correct to have the supply always on or have I got a another job for the list?

It does explain the battery drain I have been seeing though😀

All advice appreciated cheers Ian.

I have a vague memory of maybe this happening if the two relays on the flying lead from the ecu have been changed to normal 4 pin relays instead of the correct type.

Cheers for that, I'll take a look. The previous owner did a lot of work with the wireing in the footwell so this is a real posibility.
