09 1600 Tbird Won't Start

Just ordered one thanks mate

 

Ah well received a new start relay today plugged it in and got exactly the same symptoms, after a lot of voltage measuring etc. gonna check out the connections further upstream, looks like a voltage drop across the start relay supply to the starter solenoid.

 

Finally got her going, eventually come to the conclusion the starter relay was dropping out due to a drop in volts to the relay, the cause ? a couple of things 1. there are two wires connected to the Battery +ve one heavy duty to the starter and a smaller one to the fuse box supplying the rest of the systems, eventually found a spade connector on the small wire about 4 inches from the battery hidden under the seat I bypassed it with a wire direct from the Battery the Tbird started yippee, cleaned up the connector plugged it back in, no start!!!. the same setup on the -ve side of the battery cleaned that up as well the starter solenoid would now click in and out a few times which was an improvement, I removed stripped and cleaned the ignition switch.
2. I had removed the bike battery as suspect, was using a 40 Ah car battery and jump leads (3 different sets) as I somehow didn't think the leads were supplying enough power. I waited a few days for a new bike battery to arrive It was subsequently fully charged and fitted. now all is well the Tbird starts with no problems, she is ready to test ride

A big thanks to everybody that contributed
