hey
I signed up here the day my dad said he\'d give me his \'89 RX7 Turbo II. I found a reference to AON and got a great quote from them but he\'s keeping the car in the end...
Anyway the car has a slight electrical fault:
With the ignition off, the headlights work fine on dipped and main beam. But with the ignition switch on they dim way down to about 6 volts worth of light.
Dad\'s been advised to check the insulation of wiring around the headlights.
Anyone any other ideas?
Sorry if this is an FAQ! (If so do I get one by ball on my first post?)
no idea myself i\'m afraid but just so you dont feel ignored & in the hope someone with some electrica 2nd gen knowledge shows up welcome & back to the top for this thread:wave
Si
cheers mate.
I\'ve told him that he knows rightly what the problem is - it\'s a dodgy wire somewhere: all he has to do is find it!
For the record symptoms are:
Ignition Off: Lights work fine, dip and main.
Ignition On:
Light switch Off: Lights half glow.
Light switch On: Only main beam - dip switch doesn\'t do anything (even though it works fine with ignition off).
We just have to work out how the ignition circuit is impacting the light cicruit...
