ginga_d 0 Posted February 1, 2010 Report Share Posted February 1, 2010 something odd happened when i started me car today. been for a run already to town then when i come back from the shops i turn the ignition, little pop from exhaust, then sounded like the battery died then the clocks reset to zero it took a bit longer to fire than normal but when it did he drove fine.

Ben Seabrook 4 Posted February 11, 2010 Report Share Posted February 11, 2010 mate haven't had any luck finding a diagram but there are a couple around the battery - trace back the wires from the battery and then there is about 4 on top of the block and one at the front below the thermostat if I remember correctly, just make sure they are clean etc Link to post Share on other sites
