Hi Rabin,
Well I did what you've suggested.. Guess what, even when I reach
over heat stage, my starter still cranks. Well... most of the times.
Plus I've got the bonus for all the headlamps, interior lights
shines "blink....blink".
I've discussed with my mechanic that he suggested me to change the
ignition switch since it does not stay stable (the current was
tested w/ a volt meter) after cranked several times. I'll test my
old starter motor and go direct to the battery after I change the
switch.
Thanks for the info.
Regards,
Nelson
