    Hello guys, I have bought a ‘94 mondial T recently and it has been working fine but suddenly the motor doea not start.

    I am very new to evetything and don’t know how to solve it. But what I think is that it might be due to some kind of oxidation in the starter motor since I am suspecting that the service has washed the motor ..

    Do you think it could be that?

    If so is there anyone who can help me how to reach the start motor and clean it ?

    Thank you & Regards

    Congrats! Love the car...

    These Mondials were fitted at some point with a starter relay kit (bosch), to solve a voltage loss issue to the starter relay when hot. This was a formal factory recall/bulletin. These relays go bad, and if so, you would get no start at all even when cold. If you have it installed, it should be attached, or near, the right side coil pack aluminum mounting block; near shock. In mine it was not really as per the factory instructions location, but you will see it. I had to replace it. $20.

    Check to see if you are getting power to the starter, check your ground connections too. More info needed.....

    Always start with the basics. Is your battery new? I can see the dash lights on but presume your car is not cranking.

    That’s was my issues my lights on the dash turned on but the battery wasn’t holding charge. I would charge the battery and it Would start. I put in a new optima yellow top battery .

    If I don't disconnect the battery after parked, or forget to plug in the battery trickle-charger in the garage, my Mondial t will drain the battery in a few weeks, or less.
    Has something to do with electrical stuff still running even with the key removed from the ignition, so I am told.
    Maybe its why the battery disconnect knob was installed by Ferrari (under the hood) in these models 30 years ago.
