Say hello to my little friend!

Ok the auto spark has given up, he can't work out why the starter keeps staying on, 6 hrs on it and he can't figure it out.
Would it be possible Vince to bring it to you?
Thanks

Of course mate no problem.
Are you going to drive it home after?



P.S. Are you getting any codes from the check light?

Would you happen to have any diagrams of what you have done at all?
Thanks

[zem_41]

Yeah have tried that and no difference mate :-(

[BUSHWHACKER]

Ok buddy will do that, is it this one?
Seems to be the only blue with yellow stripes with a solid black next to it.
Thanks

Thats the one.

Would you happen to have any wiring diagrams you could email over to me please mate?
Thanks

It seems that is already the case as when I was messing around with the other day and tried starting it, the truck started rolling forward.
I have an au to electritian here now trying to work it out. It seems the on wiggling the wires at the relays the starter keeps staying on but wiggle it the other way and it stops, which then allows you to try and start. But again it only fires while the key is in start position.

You still need to do what I said in the previous post though.

It seems that the starter only gets stuck on when the truck is in neutral
Any ideas?

Could the key sensor that was around the barrel be the problem with the not running?
Thanks

Hmm, sounds like the neutral start switch is back feeding 12v to the starter relay.

OK what you need to do, is unplug the largest plug from the ECU, (34 pin plug on the far left) find the thin blue wire with a yellow stripe (Pin 13 which is between a black wire and black/white wire) and snip it approx 6" from the plug and tape over the end and wrap it into the loom.

Then with the 6" length left at the plug, solder a length of wire to it thats long enough for you to connect ignition 12v to it.

Just be aware though, that the engine will be able to be started in any gear.

Any thoughts Vince? Still stuck with this at mo.

Would reversing the two 12v+ wires at the ignition make any difference?
Thanks in advance vince

I tried connecting pump to the ignition switch.
it still tries to start on its own even if the key is only turned to the ignition on position not the start position.
But when it doesn't do this and I try to start, it fires and sort of runs but only when the key is in start position, as soon as I turn the key back it stops dead, if I throttle while starting it revs up a little but again only while key is in start position.

Could the two wires going to the ignition switch be the wrong way round to cause this?
