At the club BBQ a couple of weeks ago, loaded up the 944 to whip around to Pauls, 944 wouldn't start! :evil:
Today is the first time I've had to have a look. Firstly charged battery, spun key no rev counter bounce.... Swapped DME relay with spare still no start, reseated (wiggled) flywheel senor connectors spun key, rev counter bounced & then away it went. Just proved logical diagnosis works....
Now need to disconnect & properly clean sensor connectors.

Good Luck Jim.

Due to time restraints I am going to have to be lazy and put mine in for some pre MOT work at the end of next week. Need front brake lines replaced and finally get my Dansk exhaust fitted.

Glad it's sorted.

I need to get the Speedster in for it's MOT, first time I've let it lapse.

Disgusting, what is the world coming to? :mrgreen:
Assuming the mechanics are as clean & shiny as everything else then there will be no problems :alien:
