  • 2003 GXL Gets wet then wont start

    Hey All,

    We bought our 2003 GXL turbo diesel earlier this year
    Everytime ive got it wet(car wash/heavy rain), it runs fine(if its already going when it gets wet) but as soon as i turn it off and come back a hour or 2 later, its got no power at all. Wont even crank over, no dash lights - NOTHING.
    I put a battery charger on for a few hours and its starts fine.

    Im thinking something is getting wet and causing this issue. Anyone have any ideas on what i should check?

    Cheers

      The only thing I can fathom to geting wet is something near or on the inner guard...or block....check your earth maybe?

        First thing you should do is connect a meter to the battery and see if there is load being drawn when it's turned off. If your unsure on how to do this, check Youtube, as there is an excellent clip showing you how. Do this straight after a car wash or heavy rain.
        If this shows nothing, you could try starting it up cold, lift the bonnet, and try squirting water ( water bottle ) at various areas. You should expect to have the motor stutter if wet the electrics but not stop. If it does stop, there's the place to start looking for your cause.
