my beerlingo stopped dead on the first corner.
I got recovered 500yards, the recovery guy said it could be cambelt slipped, so that was the first thing to check. That all lined up
Fusebox/es next, the 20A fuse for the ECU etc was blown. With a new fuse it started, but I got 5 yards and it blew. So with a few packs of fuses I tried disconnecting things one by one, removing the ECU, testing wires etc. I’m useless at electrics but the thought of driving along and losing the steering and brakes suddenly was too scary for me to try driving again without finding the real problem
Eventually I took out the battery box,there was the main ECU cable/s, rubbing against the battery tray,had worn through the wiring. Abit of tape and a connector, and its back to normal.
Took me a couple of lovely weekends searching the web for wiring diagrams, and trying different things. Couldnt have got to work if the neighbour hadnt lent me his car
