Im having a few dramas with my car. 1200 ca18det, wiring is absolutely horrendous under the dash. A mismash of old and new loom, pathetic really! I made up a new dash plate and was installing the speedo/fuel gauge/temp gauge back but forgot to connect the earth wires to the back of the speedo unit. There is no click or crank on turning the key, nothing at all. I have a red light that constantly flashes as an alarm, it is flashing with the key in off, but it goes out when i turn the key to any position (acc etc). Im assuming the light is somehow wired to the ignition. I have checked power at the back of my ignition cylinder (the plug) it has 5 wires and 2 have power in off position (one over 12v the other under 11v). I need to get the damn thing rewired i guess, but would like to get her started before then, as i assume i have burnt out a fuse or something. All fuses seem ok. I accidently crossed two fuses and the fuel pump started working, this usually happens in acc. So im guessing there is some kind of power drain when i turn the key?? Any help appreciated.
