Hello All,
In mid December I bought a 1996 Cooper Spi. It's my first mini although I previously owned a TR6, into which of course the kids didn't fit.
When I bought the car and until recently it started first time and everything seemed fine. I had intended to come on here with a few simple questions to help me resolve minor issues!
My first minor job was that the battery was not secured in anyway, so I bought the parts and whilst waiting left the battery disconnected. This weekend I have fitted the battery bar but on reconnecting the battery the car won't start.
With the immobiliser off I get:
Fuel pump on
Battery and oil light on dash
All other electrics appear to be working.
When I turn it over I just get a continous clicking noise which speeds up if I hold the key.
I have checked that battery and I only get 9.5v so it is currently charging. Do you think it's just the battery or could be something else?
The battery earth cable to the boot floor looks a little knackered so it'll probably replace this anyway.
Any help much appreciated and then I can come back with the simple questions!
Andrew
