Hi,

Have a 110 hdi exec, wont turn over, starter sounds like it is clicking, but won't turn over.

Replaced starter with a known good one from mates car, had started mates car with it just prior to removal. Also new battery fitted.

Any ideas?

Get a jump lead..connect it to negative post on battery..other end connect it to good earthing point
On engine..

This will rule out faulty..earth strap..worth a try.

If that doesn't do it, check the quick realese clamps on both battery posts and trace the big cable from battery +ve to starter, checking for any loose / poor connections.

Cheers guys, need to get it sorted asap as i need this one sold, still have an estate, but need to get the saloon away to fund more work on the estate
