I just got it in my garage yesterday and have the battery on a charger since it was dead. My question is if this RCM solder joint issue causes the car to not even crank or try to turn over?
I'd recommend sending the RCM unit to
tighed1 and have him perform the repair. That way you not only get the solder joints addressed, he replaces any relays that are a problem. His turnaround time is phenomenal and the price is even better than that!
