Help - Auto electrician in Eastbourne required
Hi guys,
My track day car is a clio 172 cup and I've got a problem with the vehicle electics. I think it's a broken wire in the car and I've
even replaced the engine wiring loom. I've got 2 172 cups and I've swapped everything I can think of over but still no joy.
Does anyone know an auto electrician near Eastbourne? I can trailer the car if required.
Thanks
Stu

My 172 cup won't start.
I get the classic cracking with the red light on constantly. It cranks a few turns then gives up.
I've got another identical cup and have swapped over everything I can think of but it still doesn't start.
It was running last weekend but when testing the spark plugs one by one the car gave up firing again.
Does anyone know someone that can help diagnose the problem?
I've swapped over :
Engine loom
Coil pack
New plugs
Ht leads
Tested Relays
Key barrel, ecu and uch
Front Lambda sensor
Crank sensor
Throttle body
Injectors
Tried all the key tricks
Charged the battery.
Added another earth strap to the engine
Locked and unlocked the car etc
Run out of ideas now.

what do you mean - It cranks a few turns then gives up?
won't it keep spinning the engine over, if not why have you not swapped the starter or cleaned the terminals?

It's an immobiliser issue. Basically it won't let the car start because there's an electrical fault.
