Hot K-Series non start - another item to check...

Had the dreaded click and no starter today. Relay in MFU box was clicking though. Got a push start and got home.

 

Tried to start the car again once I'd got home and it had cooled down, but no luck. Pushed it into the garage and took the bonnet off to check the wiring out again.

 

When I touched the small wire that connects to the solenoid from the MFU box, the end of the wire fell out of the white Lucar terminal cover with half of the crimp on the end. Looks like the crimped connector on the end of the wire has vibrated and cracked in two.

 

Hopefully an easy fix *smile*, and another thing to check if you have the same issue...

See some pictures of the build here. First 3000 miles completed!
