Car Won't Start After Removing Key In Ignition Chime?

[hayden49]

Hi guys, today I was messing around with my car 96 33 Gt-st to try and remove the annoying key in ignition chime that beeps when the keys are left in the ignition with the car off and door open.

I notced a clip with 2 wires leading onto the ignition barrel and on the new hilux utes all that is needed to disable the chime is to unclip these 2 wires.

Well I tried that and now when i try to start the car it just repeatedly makes a loud "CLICK" noise. Its like the starter motor solenoid is trying to engage but won't stay locked in to crank the motor.

Any ideas as to what I have done wrong and how to fix it?

Cheers

NVM minds, I just realised I had my stereo on for awhile while I was cleaning the car and my battery went flat. WHOOPS!

All good now though.

Nice effort.

Atleast it was a simple fix and nuthing serious.

Sounds like you have drained your battery while you were working on your car, the starter motor is struggling for current.

Get the jumper leads out mate and you should be right.

if that doesn't work just throw 2 asprin in the radiator and walk away...lol (joke)
