Hello, i'm having a strange problem with my surf starting. I've put this in mechanical although I did a search and the problem could be electrical so I wasn't sure which section to put it in.
When i try and start the truck i'll turn the key and it doesn't turn over, there's just kind of a clunk from the engine and nothing happens. When you click the ignition back and then try again it will usually start. Sometimes it tries to turn over but it's a bit half-assed and doesn't start, but again usually if you turn the key back and try again it starts fine.
I'm fairly certain it's not the batteries going flat. I thought it could be the starter motor seizing up or something but when it does start it starts straight away without any problems.
Someone metioned in a previous post that a bad earth on a brake light or a bad connection to a bulb could stop it from starting? could that be the case here?
Thanks for everyones help in previous posts, hopefully someon will be able to hlp me with this. I think it might be time for me to pay my membership fees
