Title: Starter Wiring
Post by: Glenn 'Stinky' Stankevicius on September 06, 2010, 05:03:24 PM
 ::) wiring the Pano and I have struck trouble with the Ignition/Starter circuit.
When the SOL terminal on the ignition switch is plugged into the upper terminal on the solenoid I get nothing.
If I plug it into the lower terminal and the key is turned to the ON position the starter motor runs, click it over to START and the starter motor stops  ???
What have I done wrong?

On the switch, do you have your battery feed on BAT ?

If you feed 12V to IGN terminal instead of BAT I think it would give that result.

Cheers
Peter

Thanks Peter, what about earthing the switch? The FE/FC wiring diagram looks to have an earth coming off the switch.
