If its when its on that's normal I think as it'll be the throttle body pulling back to shut.I know when I turn mine to the on position I hear the fuel pump and a click from my throttle body, so pretty sure it's normal.Sounds like something is blown though, out of curiosity have you taken the positive off the battery and left it for an hour to reset the Ecu just to see what might happen?could be starter motor, check the solanoid wire first, check for power when cranking, if theres power give the starter I good wack, not that I recomend doing that, another thing I just remembered, on mine, bf, the earth strap from body to block coroaded causing a no start issueThe clicking goes for 5-10 sec at "on" position,sorry not "acc" and my dash lights flicker with the clicking until it stops. Then it seems ok til I turn the key to ignition and all I get is the starter motor trying to thow out. If it was just the starter motor not cranking I'd say that was the problem, but the throttle body going mental before ignition makes me think the problem is elseware. The earth straps seem fine, not loose or corroded. Edited 20/01/13 07:59 AM by FoMoCoMoFo Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
