this might sound dumb....are the terminals on the battery and have good contact.

hehe yea ive made shure the terminals have correct contact.

ive checked the fuse box and ive noticed that im missing one of the larger fuses "initiate" or sumthing, the 2nd from the left. is anyone else missing this? n also y wud a car just lie there dead? would it be because either the alternator or starter engine is dead? no ignition lights even come on when the battery is fully connected =\

ok is it betleigh east or brighton? i punched up auto electrician into the vacc website and these puppies came up but i dont know which one ur refering to...

its on east boundry road, so it would be bentliegh i think!

tell him one of the boys from gloss recommend you if he asks who, tell him nathan, guy with the grey skyline, white wheels B)

If you get no ignition lights, then you have no battery power. How do you know the battery's fully charged? Does the engine crank over? Does your stereo still work? Is the clock still working?

Or maybe a fusible link has blown.

yea ive charged the battery n checked it on my corolla, nothing goes on.... NOTHING. =)

think ill need sumone to check it. u think the boys from the bentleigh auto will come down to my place in keysborough if i pay them?

i dont know if they would come down, a, get jack to tow your car there, or b find a mobile sparky, have you got racv care? they will come, just act dumb

Give me a call at home tonight - 0421 331 954 - and I'll wander down to your place tomorrow with a multi-meter and other stuff.

Offer is always there - just might have to wait until next weekend now. One evening (except Mon / Tues) might be OK.

    • A few small updates since the previous post and lessons. I decided to do a little interior light upgrade on the 110. I quite like the iilumo items, even if they're a bit of a premium over other brands. You'll also note the Stedi Fogs, that will go into the S15 fog lights as I needed to match the bulbs since I got the new ones earlier. I hope they fit as the body is quite a bit longer than your normal bulb.  Annoyingly, I managed to trip the fuse, which normally wouldn't be an issue until I located the fuse. I can't say I've ever come across this. I had lucked out that someone nearby had a spare, but oddly enough Toyota dealerships seem to keep this in stock. I ordered some to keep in my stash and as luck would have it, someone else nearby tripped the same fuse so I passed on the favour.  I also did a little service on the 110 ahead of some additional work coming up. It's been annoying that Goleby's stopped carrying this particular HKS filter for the 110, so now I need to keep them on order from Japan. I also took the opportunity to install a bash plate and number plate riser. The plate riser is such a cheap but nice fix to help really tidy up the car. I'm tempted to now also replace my headlights, on this car. Both items were from Project Aero.    I also needed to replace the rear tyres on the 110, and after trying to get it aligned learnt that I need to replace some bushes in the front end, so that's next.  Closing out this update with a nicer picture as always! 
    • Yeah mate, never miss it.
    • Any going to watch World Time Attack at SMSP this year?
    • Appreciate the correction on the "ground", that will make a huge difference to looking at this. That makes complete sense about AF70/AF71 which is what I had come down to being the issue, one of these. I'll have another look in the ignition wiring when I get a chance next week. I'll also make up a jumper wire for running that AF73 test.  ECU is fine, relay itself is fine, pump harness is fine and the pump itself is fine. I am going to upgrade the Walbro 255 anyway with a DW300 I have since I need to replace the fuel sender and I'm going to upgrade the FPR with my chasebays kit ready for new plenum/injectors/dbw, but I'll get this working first. That's why this is so frustrating.
