.303fan Posted January 17, 2014 Author Share Posted January 17, 2014 Yes, that got it sorted. thanks you for that, my google search came up with nothing. now the issue of a smoking starter relay when i try to fire up the truck.... it never ends i guess, might be the starter that draws to much.

ltwtbarmy Posted January 17, 2014 Share Posted January 17, 2014 (edited) Umm, not sure about that, although the last time I had a smoking relay, turned out the earthing was completely duff. suppose another possibility could be the battery being too strong? I'm sure if Clive Elliott saw this thread, he'd have the answer! I just got lucky with the indicator problem, being a member of that forum as well! Might be worth asking a question there as well , since there's an ex REME fitter who goes by the name of AR4412, who is brilliant at troubleshooting. regards Martin Edited January 17, 2014 by ltwtbarmy Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
.303fan Posted January 17, 2014 Author Share Posted January 17, 2014 http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/like/281095186916?hlpht=true&ops=true&viphx=1&lpid=95&device=c&adtype=pla&crdt=0&ff3=1&ff11=ICEP3.0.0&ff12=67&ff13=80&ff14=95 that is the battery, nothing special as it is the same as it had before. the starter motor was the one from a sixpot series 3, not old but might need opening up for lube. the new starter motor is a dud from the box, tried in multiple land rovers and pure on a battery but no real rpm to start a engine. does anyone have a spare decent series 2 (clamp on metal on the rear) 12v starter motor for use in negative earth vehicle? i need to get some items in so i can grab what i need instead of being stuck and nowhere to walk to for parts ( i can walk 50 meters before i need a rest and pain killers) cheers, Arjan Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ArtistsRifles Posted January 17, 2014 Share Posted January 17, 2014 I got my replacement starter (original was "borrowed") from eBay - think the firm was something like Atlantic Automotive - they did both 12v and 24v types. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
