mrkhan Posted October 8, 2011 Author Share Posted October 8, 2011 Hi again guys, not posted anything in a while, been busy with work and uni. I managed to get the engine in and the wiring done, the car was running and driving properly. just had to sort out a few electrical issues...some pics...anyways, since then the car went back into the garage so i could sort the electrics. In my attempt to 'sort' the electrics while very tired and frustrated, i accidentally plugged the power lead into the interior fuse box while the ignition was on, at this point i heard a pop and thought... "f*ck" since then the car will not start, i started by checking fuses and relays which didnt solve the issue. i then determined that i was getting no spark so checked the ignition coil and amplifier which worked fine when i gave a direct live and the car started. so i then replaced the ecu which didnt solve the issue. now im just confused. i realise that i could just wire a new ignition live to the ignition amplifier but i would much rather find out what the issue is and rectify it. i have one relay yet to replace which i discovered in the dark last night. it is green and says open circuit relay. (so if anyone has one for me it would be much appreciated) i hope that changing the relay will solve the isssue.any pointers on this would be great. also, when i remove the key the wipers and indicators still work. and when i turn the side lights on the fuse keeps blowing, ive checked all the bulbs associated with the sidelights and they dont seem to be the cause of the shorting. If any one has any information as to the cause of these issues it would be great as i need to get the car on the road as soon as possible so that i can sell my alfa to fund my university fees. any input would help. Thanks. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Guest Enzo Posted October 10, 2011 Share Posted October 10, 2011 is there a part number on the green fuse? ive got a few looms lying in my garage and might have the right one mate,any pointers on this would be great. also, when i remove the key the wipers and indicators still work. and when i turn the side lights on the fuse keeps blowing, ive checked all the bulbs associated with the sidelights and they dont seem to be the cause of the shorting.has this just started happening since you shorted the loom or since you did the convo?what was the state of the loom wires when you put them in, did you check them for any tears/nicks?
