Clive, From my recent starting probelm, Took my townie to a auto eletrician, where he tested it for drain, but he could not find a fault, anyhow I decided to buy a new battery,because once you drain your battery so many times it charge value is pratically nothing. But when waking up this morning, battery light looked ok but no start: any how, glow plugs, alternator, etc;..................Hmmm Clive if you are in Bristol ove rthe weekend it would great if we could meet up and you could give a run down, if possible.Cheers Graham

Sounds like the 'normal' Twonie voltage drop problem, just follow the Ace ANswers link aboveto find out how to fit a relay in line to operate your starter motor properly, and cure the problem once & for all.

Regards Rob.
