hi all, Right here goes the vehicle in question is a Fiat Brava 1.9jtd elx 105 you can be driving along perfectly fine and pull up to traffic lights and with no warning the engine dies, no coughing no spluttering no lights on dash just dies. just time she fired staright back up but yesterday it did it again and wont fire up for about 3 mins. its completely random it went on a very long jouney and was fine. just drove it around town and it cut out. its battery is fine, there is plenty of fuel.engine runs perfect but then it can just dies no other symptons. :bang:
 
Hi this could be the diesel pump cut off switch this was happening to mine and the same has just been happening to my 106 diesel aswell. Hope this helps.

Hi mate,

Sounds like classic crank sensor failure to me. Very common the JTD. Will cost you about £25 to fix if you follow this GUIDE.

Id put money on it lol

Hope that helps,
Alan
