Depending which part of the Pyrenees you are near, you could be relatively close to us, we are only 2 hours from the mountains.
Well when we are over there, as in "not now"!

If I attach it to the battery positive would it show up on the voltmeter ?
Volt meter currently (no pun intended) showing 12v on a battery that has been stood for over a year :)

No, run it through a DVM in high ish setting first, ACV setting first then DCV and see what you get. It may have a voltage but may need rectification/regulation.

Could you translate that into something I can understand please, haven't a clue what it means :p

Do you have a Multi meter or a Digital Multi meter?
Set it to AC and on a high ish range.
Run the engine and put 1 lead to your wire and the other to earth, Rev the engine a bit, If you get a reading then you have an alternating current coming out so would need to apply a rectifier to the line to make it DC.
If nothing (or extremely low) then change it to the DC and repeat.

I suspect being a quite new engine it will be DC and in a safe range to connect to a battery, but I would check it first.

Mini ecu saga continues wft :mad: had to send back the 2nd ecu ive bought...returned through ebay & royal mail
I cable tied the keys & ecu body control unit together, wrapped it up in the box it came in then wrapped the box in gaffer
tape so it couldnt be damaged. Seller got the box & guess what the keys & the body control unit are missing out
the box :rolleyes: Seams like theres a bit of a claim going on here im due a couple of hundred quid back & he doesnt
want to refund me as there are missing parts ive got the receipt & it was weighed when I handed it over.
Now what happens. ?? :mad:
When he claims on ebay you counter claim. If it has gone missing in the post then your responsible. Claim on royal mail. The limit will depend on what service yer bortid.

Thank you
Mower wiring only has a solenoid so I suspect it should be quite simple
