Hi

Seems to be Ihav a short in the starter circuit somewhere.

When I turn the key, light go out, but no start of car.

Thought it was the ignitionswitch, cause sometimes rattling the key helped.

Tried today to unplug the connector from the ignition switch, and
with a wire jump the fat red and the fat red/black wire.

No starter, but the jumperwire got very hot.

Guess I have a short somewhere in the starter-circuit - so I'd really
appreciate any help in finding it.

Best regards

Jens Jakob
