My baby doesn’t work....help please!

Hi all,

Tried turning on last week just got a click when turning key once.

Had starter motor changed, replaced battery and changed fuse60 in passenger footwell.

After each step I have tried to start her and I get the click in this video....anyone able to offer advice?

On the + battery terminal is a plastic box
Inside is a massive fuse
Check it’s not blown
If it is the thick cable can rub at the front on the diff ?
Or the engine could be seized Mad

Do the lights dim when attempting cranking

Sorry missed this point, I’ve swapped out the maxi fuse. Purchased off Johncraddock.co.uk.

To be honest it sounds like the bloody seized...anyone want a dud D3 for £1600?

Will check the thick cable in front near the diff...

Was the maxi fuse blown ?
Is it blown again ?

You need to test it with a meter

If the engine is siezed it will blow the 450a mega fuse.

I would suggest you get a socket on the crank bolt and see if it will turn over before changing the fuse again.
