bertybasset Posted June 4, 2015 Author Share Posted June 4, 2015 Hi again – I finally sorted it – as I had done it with scotch clipsI decided to solder all the joints and the fault was still there and as I washolding the relay I must have moved one of the joints at the terminals and loand behold the unit kicked into life – so it was all or nothing at this stage and decided to prise open therelay and the positive and negative terminalscame away from the circuit board – so I decided just to solder a couple ofwires onto the circuit board and reconnected them and all other wires - and BINGO all sprung into life – so it musthave been a dry solder joint in relay from removal from my last car 6 weeks ago– so end result is all is now working fine - thanks for your advice -- robert Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
