New battery and completely dead
Posted: Wed May 13, 2009 1:08 pm
As per the title,
I have a 1992 sierra which has been a f'king bitch of late.
As a result of a dunking, I have replaced the alternator, starter motor and possibly unrelated, the coil, plugs leads and distributor.
The car is in storage for the short term while in the process of moving.
The other day I went to collect the bitch and she wouldn't start. The symptons were a partially flat battery. This battery has been suspect for a while, so I replaced it.
Now nothing at all. Even the flashing light on the immobiliser isn't flashing.
I have searched, the conclusion I have drawn from this was replace the fuse running from the battery to the ignition (some assumptions here) didn't help either way.
I retried the old battery and there was no difference, ruling out a dud new battery, in my mind at least.
The immobiliser is some aftermarket thing I needed to register the car, it was installed be an auto elec, and has posed no previous problems.
Any clues ?
Admittedly I am new to the Suzuki world, but this has me stumped.
Thanks in advance
