I hate to say it but my ‘ignition but no crank issues’ haven’t gone away. The car certain starts cleaner after the recent flush, but something still isn’t quite right.
Typically, I have gone for a drive, stopped the car, say to re-fuel, return and I get lights but no crank. I turn the key off and on and car starts.
It worries me that one day I won’t be able to get the car to start all. The most likely candidates for the issue seem to be:
1. Solenoid
2. Ignition relay
3. Alarm
The car does have an after market alarm as factory ones were not available back when the car was made. Perhaps the engine cut out relay in the alarm is failing after all this time? This is hard to troubleshoot without disabling the whole alarm. So my thinking is to get the mechanicals replaced (solenoid and ignition relay) first. Then, if the problem continues, it maybe time to consider getting a new alarm?
The car goes back to Racing Red shortly for a once over again and I’ll report back once that has been completed and if anything was found or replace.
Again, annoying but I need to have it sorted to have piece of mind.
