What have i done ! New project tb 216R

Sounds fairly typical of a battery going down, have you tried a jump pack on it ?

Battery is reading 12.6v i had the dash out wobbling the wires that go into the back of it and it slid off and knocked on the side now the dash doesnt do anything so im presuming the fault was in there? I'm going to contact the people i bought all the parts off tomorrow see if there any warranty but I doubt it

Test the battery under load ,test whilst trying to start

Somewhere in there is a big fuse, had those corroded, there is also a link on a security plug

Don't think mine is posh enough for a security plug

Ill check the big fuse later its right on the battery terminal

The plot thickens put the battery on turned the key dash came on perfect for maybe 2 seconds then went off no sign of life at all

Battery reading in the photo below as soon as I turn the key the reading drops to 0.6v

could have a cell going down in the battery - take the positive terminal off and connect up a known good jump battery or pack and try again

I think Bosch s4 batteries have a 4yr warranty

After all that it was the bloody spade terminal it had heat shrink over it but that was the only thing holding it together!! I hate electrics
