ShaunW Posted June 13, 2018 Author Report Share Posted June 13, 2018 FYI new 3 ohm coil installed. New 12v ignition switched supply taken from the unfused side of fuse 1. Works like a charm. Thank all. I'm looking forward to seeing how it gets up the road but suddenly my leccy fuel pump has started making a lot more noise than usual and it's warmer than I'd like really. The one in there is a Facet posi-flow. Any recommendations for a replacement? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DerekS Posted June 13, 2018 Report Share Posted June 13, 2018 A quick question Shaun, I'd like to copy this, how did you tap in please? Did you cut the wire and put bullet connectors in or what? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ShaunW Posted June 13, 2018 Author Report Share Posted June 13, 2018 Well that's what I plan to do. But I didn’t have any wire the right colour, or a 2 into 1 bullet connector.... and the white coming out of the loom was a bit short to start messing about with. So did a temporary fix. There was a wire from the headlight relay to the ignition, so I made up a short lead with a piggyback spade on one end. It popped on the relay, and the 12v slid on that. It's not bad at all really but when I tidy up the scuttle (? The bit with all the battery and coil on etc) I'll do a proper job. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ShaunW Posted June 13, 2018 Author Report Share Posted June 13, 2018 Derek now I think about this more I think I've wired it to the accessories feed from the ignition, and that could be the horn relay not lights. Lol some help I've been eh! I'll have another look tomorrow and do it properly, probably the way you mentioned or soldered. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dougbgt6 Posted June 14, 2018 Report Share Posted June 14, 2018 So the ignition only works when you press the horn? Slightly irritating, but a fix none the less. Doug 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ShaunW Posted June 14, 2018 Author Report Share Posted June 14, 2018 It's not quite that bad. I did have a car once that sounded the horn when I turned left. It took about 3 or 4 toots before I realised it was me, till then I'd spun around and glared at cars nearby with that 'what the heck are you doing that for' look.

dougbgt6 Posted June 14, 2018 Report Share Posted June 14, 2018 Shaun, Until recently my GT6 horn sounded if I pulled too hard on the wheel, left or right, but cured by installation of a Mota Lita Steering wheel An expensive fix. Doug Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
