I've just spent the day replacing the clutch and rear main seal on the 16v RS. During disassembly I've found a cracked pipe to be welded(for later).
Reassembly and clutch adjustment went well, but I've done something wrong with the wiring. I've now run out of energy and motivation to chase it any further tonight. All lights working as expected, starter turns fine, sidestand stops the starter from turning as it should. So what's wrong? The cooling fan runs as soon as I turn the ignition on and the engine won't fire.
It's a 92 RS-16v (non ABS model), so early Motronic. The only wiring that got disturbed was battery, computer, alternator, starter motor, rear lights.
