Motorraum: Heavy starter + limp mode

[Erlingur]

Hello Erich,

I'll have to check my starter cable.
That could be the reason for what seems to be bad contact/lack of power and electrical smell and smoke :(

The starter is brand new (but an aftermerket type) so I assume that the cable is more likely.

I'm planing to get to this repairs next weekend, so then problably I'll then continue with the limp mode problem.

I have been reading through the limp mode and EML repairs you have posted (can understand some german)
Does the bulp in the dash board have to glow???
If the EML light does not come on shall I fix the dash board first?
