    Thinking of selling my 3200GT.

    I am feeling the pain to be honest, had no bites to speak of, I appreciate she is a niche car and as such, due to her age, will need someone who is prepared for the ownership of a 3200 GTA. I have even dropped the price to a paltry £16500. Dared to look at webuyanycar.com....£9000...unbelievable.

    Time for a change??

    That's a good point AndyK, I am looking for around £18k, however there are two main issues with the car currently. The leather on the top of the dash has lifted so will need repaired and one of the LED's is defective on the high level brake light, this is bringing up an error message on the...

    3200GT boot release and Alarm!

    Finally, found someone prepared to refurbish it...hopefully it will not take too long. With my luck, it will be ready as the sun disappears...

    Dave, Not very electrically minded to that level. The alternator is only kicking out about 16amos and it should be 60+ so the assumption is that it is on its way out. Not even sure what parts I would need or where to get them.

    You can adjust the lock at the bottom, might just need moving up a few mm.???

    3200GT boot release and Alarm!

    Happy days, good bit of fault finding...well done. My saga continues, apparently no one can recondition my alternator. One last shot tomorrow, otherwise I am looking at a new one and the subsequent excessive lead time....not happy.

    Apologies Tappets, car still in the garage so have yet to get some pictures. However it does sound like your solenoid is operating correctly so, like mine, just some minor adjustment.

    Tappers, have you applied a voltage across the solenoid to see if it operates??

    All fixed, well the boot is anyway. Turns out everything is working as it should but when connected together it didn’t work. Some minor fettling, slight adjustment and the boot release works. I think over time, things have worn, loosened slightly and and just needed minor adjustment. Thanks for...

    Gents, just having similar problems myself, at almost £300 for a new one, I have had a play with mine. It returns when a voltage is applied across it but will not return. When it was on the car, the boot would not close, so it will jot return, the key will also not turn in the lock...any...
