Starter Solenoid Mod - Early vins (pre VIN 2548) - Barson - 25 Oct 2006

Hello

Have any of you tried this mod that's been posted on DMC news:
http://www.dmcnews.com/Techsection/starterfix.html

If so, did you see any good results?

cheers
Dave. :lol:

Yes Smile

bazzin.

I'll get some wire from Half0rds and try it.


cheers!
Dave.

You might not be able to get some wire thick enough from Halfrauds

12" of 14 awg wire is needed, one end needs a locking female 'barb' spade connection (for the relay base) and the other a standard spade connection for the battery side of the 'stock' 25 amp circuit breaker.

Seeing as i have my soldering iron out in front of me with all the bits needed i can make one up for you now. If thats ok i will post it off to you.
