This morning, my wife's Explorer wouldn't start.....Luckily, the 914 is a third car, so I gave her the keys to the Honda, switched the baby seats and hopped into the 914 for a short jaunt to work. The car ran like S*%@. It was running rough and had no power (even less than normal). To make matters worse, it limped all the way to work, so now I have to work. Maybe I can leave early to adress some "car issues."

Hmm, maybe there's a relay that powers parts of the acessory circuits that got stuck on? Hard to diagnose that sort of thing without a wiring diagram. See if there's anything else besides turning off the stwich that can make the tick-tock stop. Could also be something sticking in the ignition switch.
Good to hear you got the fleet going again (IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/html/emoticons/smile.gif) |
