OK you mechanical/electrical wizards, see if anybody can solve this one?
I already did, more or less. I weill send the first correct answer a
Triumph badge.
Problem:
1. On the way home in my 1980 TR8 I suddenly got an intermittent
chirping/buzzing type of noise from what seemed to be the passenger door.
The radio was off, doesn't work anyway. I removed the speaker while driving
in stop-go traffic, noise persisted.
2. Got home, left car running in driveway, took some stuff inside, went
back to drive car round block to find where noise was coming from, (seat
belt, door buzzers etc have all been disconnected by DOP), and had trouble
turning wheel to left, but not right.
Then motor quit, wouldn't start, no starter motor either. Lights still
worked, got 12 volts across battery terminals and 12v to grounding bolt.
What was the problem?? Took about 5 mins to fix once I found out what it was
