Re: [T3] electrical woes


Wow! This list has grown up since I was last here. Getting a lot of postings for only one day.

Where can I get a Bently T3 manual? I thought these were not being printed anymore.

Hmm. When I turn the key on, the idiot lights come on, and the two relays by the voltage 
regulator click at the same time. Does this mean one of the relays isn't working properly?

Well the starter is another problem. It isn't cranking the engine. When I turn the key to start, the 
solinoid goes, but it doesn't turn the engine. It sounds like the starter is trying to turn but can't. I 
pulled it out and checked it before, and it orked fine outside of the car. I figured I should tackle 
the fuel pump first, then the starter.

Thanks for your help so far.
