kilokilla 0 Posted December 5, 2007 Report Share Posted December 5, 2007 have you plugged the thin red wire from engine loom into fuse box mate as this can cause this problem and to be honest without seeing your setup its a bit hard to say there is a few reasons why it may not be working if you can get it up to me somehow and everything is in place im sure i could have you driving it away same day.Carl.
