Hi all
I put a post up this morning re defender 200tdi not charging!
That was the symptom as the lights were dimming, however when I got to it this evening I bounced it off started ok and drove it home, around 15 miles.
When we got home it had obviously charged as lights were fine etc.
Tried to start it and all fine, stopped and started around 10 times, all ok!
Took it out for a spin and when we got back it wouldn't start again
Battery has loads of charge.
If I have the lights on and try to start it the lights dim, so it's putting power to the starter motor I guess?
I'm thinking I will try to get a new starter and try that, am I clutching at straws?
Any ideas, desperate!
