No power in ae101

Postby gleem » Sun Mar 08, 2009 3:06 pm

I have a ae101 gtz. The battery was relocated to the boot by last owner. Since i started working on it i have removed all aircon in engine and interior aswell as replacing the whole front loom for lights etc. All plugs etc are in. The car also has a crap alarm

Battery has 14 volts but the car wont light up or anything. if checked averything i can that i found on the net but no luck. All fuses are fine.

Could somebody suggest something

thanks

Where does the battery power feed run to? Do any of the lights or anything at all work or have you just lost the engine side of things?

And where does the battery feed wire run to?? Usually hanging off the side of the positive terminal there will be a couple of fuseible links which will be the couple of fuses for basically the entire car.

played around abit and soldered some wires together and now idicators etc work but no power to engine. The previous owner did a dodge job on the turbo timer and alarm. Light on turbo timer comes on but not sure if the right wires are were they are supposed to be. also the alarm and compnents dodnt work at all so this probably has something to do with it. There must be 10 odd wires from all different places going now were. Is anybody on here good with this in aucks and keen for a cashey. will be easy as theres no aircon etc in the way and its een working before so its all about connectig wires? Or wiring guieds fo ae01 if somebodys done this before?
