right well the other day my nova (c20let turbo) broke down on me.
nothing mechanical! its defo electrical if i wiggle the wires in the ignition switch the car starts up. but then cuts straight back out again :S. so i asked about and my mate told me it could be the feed behind my clocks/dashboard.

anyone else had this problem? just i dont want to be stripping her down if thats not it.

very strange.....

Aftermarket alarm?? Badly fitted mk2 dash?? Fire rats chewing your power feeds??

Fraid youre going to have to whip the dash out (which is easy btw:p) and check all of your wiring till you find the fault, although if wiggling the ignition wires seems to make it work again briefly, then you at least have a good starting point to begin with:thumb:
