Crachat

As Inspector Cleusau would say, the problem she is sol-ved! Loose spade connector on the starter motor. Crimped up and now starting. Thank you all for your help and advice.

" trigger wire " it was [again] then !, Good for you my friend. Zero / zilch attempt on Bendix / not even a clicking noise go for trigger wire 1st on your list of solutions / tests.

Damn fine result!

awsome

Another possibility - have you got the availability of a multimeter? To check battery voltage?
From my own experience on a previous GV 3.3 if the battery popped its clogs even a jump start won't do it.
12.7 volts or more after a good period of charge and 15 minutes off the charger I believe.

Have you tried the earth lead connection to the starter motor? That was the trouble with mine with similar symptoms a year or so back IIRC. A quick wiggle and it magically sprang back to life. Replaced the spade connector with a new one after and it's not done it again. Good luck!
