Hello,
I have taken the starter motor off in order to get at the off side rear exhaust bolts. I forgot to disconnect the battery, hence a few sparks. Did the work on the exhaust manifold, put everything back again. Tried to start the car. No electrics of any sort (lights, horn, ignition, windows all dead). I have checked the fuses in the passenger foot well and I have checked the two large fuses (one in the footwell and one strapped to the chassis near the starter motor). Both ok.
I don't know if I disconnected something else and have forgotten about it but I don't think so. The red isolator switch is also 'ON'.

Any ideas
Merv. McFarland
