well, the first thing clearly is check the wiring to the starter motor!
check that you get a 12v feed to it when the key is in position 3

well i've had a bit of a problem with getting it done, the car was in my mates yard for 13weeks, and he never finished it, been in this new garage now and he cant find the icv plug on the loom at all it aint there. anyway this new fella aint wired the alt or starter as it was already done, dunno who done it tho, my mate never and i never lol. does this need to be done with the corsa bit of the loom?


or can it be done with the loom from the cav gsi? evan tho that was just 1 peaice.

right the corsa starter loom is conected to the alt and starter motor, but were else does it go?? my mate who put it on said it goes to the other loom, but i was under the impression it goes into the bulkhead on the passangers side?? and then conects to somthing??

also what wires should be conected on it? just to double check them. if this isnt the problem i'm fucked

yes starter motor will turn the engine over, it gets the oil around the engine since it will be bone dry after being stood without being started
