I have a 74 914 which has been in storage for many years, after installing a new battery I can not get any systems to work when the ignition is turned on... The looms appear to be in very good shape and are unmolested.. Is this a power relay problem? no starter crank action ... nothing seems to work, power seems to be getting to the relay board...Suggestions are welcome.. JON [swb911s]

There is no main power relay as such. One big wire from the battery to the starter and one to the relay board which feeds the fuse box directly I believe.
Have you checked the ground straps to the chassis? Get a voltmeter or even a 12v test probe/light. One end to a clean chassis ground point then start poking at things that should have power. Several fuse positions are 'always on'. Report back what you find (or don't find..) |
