Hey guys, I turn the key and got reds, but then when i turn to crank it wont crank. I tested immob and thats working fine,when i turn the key the purple wire is sending signal to starter i presume. when i bridge the starter it cranks fine. I have checked all earths in the bay and there ok. also connected and re-connected all wiring onto my starter with no change. Car has been working fine for years. Recently it would crank/start in the morning but then when it turned it off wouldnt crank for a few hours. Now it wont even start in the morning. What am i missing/overlooking? cheers

sounds just like a prob I had on one VLT many years ago bit hazy but i think we fixed by putting a relay in the circuit to improve the power to the starter
