Re: contiuous clicking after turning key, engine won't turn

so the batteries drain over night, and this came about quite suddenly as i've had the 'deli' for a year and never a charge problem until 3 days ago. seems strange to me. it takes a charge no prob so its not anything to do with the posts/clamps. its either not taking a charge from the alternator or i...

Re: contiuous clicking after turning key, engine won't turn

i haven't looked yet, but approximately where is the alternator located on an L300. I would like to check the wires for corrosion and such in the morning. btw: the 'deli' fired up beautifully after charging the batts enough, almost seemed as though it started better than normal. took it for a rip to...

Re: contiuous clicking after turning key, engine won't turn

not the batts, 6 mnths old and super expensive. i believe in starting with the simplest things first as well.

contiuous clicking after turning key, engine won't turn over

so after turning the key top ON, I get a continuous clicking (like the click for the glow plugs) but this has no 10 second break between nor does it ever stop clicking as long as the key is in ON. the engine won't turn over either. my best guess is the ECU from what I can find on the forum search, b...
