    Ignition light resistor

    That's odd because we checked the voltage between the bulb and the positive terminal of the battery. With the ignition switched off this was -12.5v. Then when I started up, this changed to +4v. The explanation that this guy gave me was the while the engine was off, the alternator wasn't...

A friend came to try to find the problem with me, and his conclusion is that the ignition light resistor has gone 'open circuit', which apparently in layman's...

    2.5D Turbo: Mineral or Synthetic oil?
