the plot thickens
thanks for your replies to my post,as a reminder of my problem here are the core details when i turn the key to start the car on the third click nothing happens apparently there is only 1 volt getting to the starter motor when this happens, however this problem comes and goes. What has been tried so far... ok here we go apparently the garage have checked the earth and say its fine, as mentioned they have changed the starter motor thought it was the alternator but discounted that, thought it may be the battery but not sure, think it could be the lead that runs from the battery to the starter motor but cant say for sure, so basically in a nutshell my problem remains , however the garage have said that they have disconected the cable that feeds the starter and pulled it inside the car when they try and start it they get 13 volts going to the end of the cable, they feed the cable back into the engine bay with out reconnecting it and get 1 volt going to it, so the cable you may think, they wont say for sure though, the weird thing is they reconnected it back to the starter and i will start. But for how long im not sure, has anyone had a similar experiance or got any thoughts on what ive got?
Thanks
Gavin
