		Well went out to what I expected to be a dead battery, but she fired up first time (well as good as, need to change the fuel filter today haha) so I think the boot light might have been it.
But as soon as the multimeter turns up ill check as much as I can

		Nice find.
I think the sensor is in the boot hatch?! Its a very simple device.

		Yeah ill check the sensor over as soon as the multimeter arrives. Normal for them to just go?

		If its like the ph3 its just a ball switch.  Hatch opens, ball drops and connects contacts.  Hatch closes, ball drops and contacts open.
