Omega General Help / Re: Door solenoid replacement

« on: 25 October 2009, 11:03:03 »

replacing a solonoid was my first job. i followed the how to &.  i found it fiddly but quite easy the only problem i encountered was the bar from the opening catch to the lock kept jumping off. i put a cable tie round the rod & through two holes in the door interior just tight enough to keep it in situ. that was 18mths ago.

imobiliser seems ok. i,m not 100% sure but if the s/m bendix is not engaging and spinning the flywheel could this be the prob. thats what it sounds like when i try to turn the engine.

Omega General Help / bad starting sometimes

« on: 22 October 2009, 21:29:21 »

on occassions my tractor has starting probs. its as if the starter motor is sticking. but it has always started.  you can imagine my panic on Tuesday when i had to pick my 6yr old grand,daughter from school but went elsewhere first. i left it for two mins, tried turning it for 20mins eventually flattening the battery. the outcome was ok in the end a taxi driver got me there just on time & later on a neighbour jumped it off (first turn of the key) i will have to try & sort it tomorrow as iv,e just been informed that i,m picking her up tomorrow. fingers x
