Postby vivamike123 » Wed Apr 13, 2011 10:12 am

:? hi everyone since geting this HB its had a starting problem that is only when its cold, bearing in mind the battery is fully charged and new when you first try to turn it over it only just has enough power to crank it the once and it usualy catches and runs but if it dont it doesent seem to have enough charge to turn it over again, but the battery is fully charged and if i jump it it starts fine,so my reconing is that its the starter solenoid because when running the charging and everything is fine. any help please :angrywife:

Sounds more like a iffy starter to me, or bad earth on the engine earth strap.
