this thing only happen when wrong grounding connection occured... thats all... be xtra careful if you're driving efi car... it will kaboom your e.c.u... bye bye... :D

i think its not ne cable prob.. mayb dat time u hear tak tak sound is bcos ur battery terminal not tight...

then when u remove de cable liao.. u tighten back the terminal.. duno lar.. u din mention how u do it,.. n wat are de grounding points...

 

[kruger]

thats right!!! check your connections first before blaming on the wires... "bukan salah ibu mengandung..." hahahaha :D

Bros,

Thanks for your concerns. It worked well today whole day driving.

THe cable connected to the STARTER instead of the alternator! Thats why tak tak sound! THen the wire got very hot! Lucky i took it out fast, after 2 times starting the car! *Phew* Lucky din burn anything! Even lucky my car has no ECU! :P:P

SO tmro I need to screw it on the alternator, after know where its location from my mechanic. :P

BTW, I got engine oils very affordable and good quality. U can refer this here http://www.zerotohundred.com/newforums/showthread.php?t=24034

Thanks bros!

wire get very hot means short already.... but dun worry.. it wun cause ur ECU to fry.. cos its between de battery n ur starter or de wire... so nothing to do with de ECU... unless ur car engine is running then got short... then got possibilities to get ur ECU fried.
