Hi All
After having starting problems with my 182 i removed starter motor and completed a bench test which indicated the gear was not engaging, only the motor spinning. Bought a new starter motor and fitted today. When connecting the battery back up as soon as the terminals are touching the motor turns over?
Any ideas?
Could i have created a short when moving starter cables out of the way for fitting?
Or could i have a secondary problem with the ignition wiring?
A little out of my depth any advice greatly appreciated.
ps key not in ignition when car trying to start.
Thank you
