I dont suppose anybody has a wiring diagrame of the starting/charging system for one of these!
I have some "wierd" electrical problems on one which I either have to fix or work around but would like to have some idea of how it is supposed to work before I get stuck in!
(Symptoms. Wont switch off on key. can only stop engine by unplugging 2 pin "Bosch" type connector on alternator. Initially I thought it was an alternator fault since it was running at 18V and had killed the battery! but with new alternator and battry problem still present.
Interestingly if the alternator plug is left disconected the starter wont work! Also, with plug disconected, not only does the alternator warning light not come up (which one would expect) the overtemperature light stays off as well (Ign on, engine stopped)
Something is backfeeding somewhere. A wiring diagramme would be realy helpful
