Just fitted a replacement 1248cc engine to our 2004 Panda Dynamic. The new engine (also 1248cc) is a low mileage runner that came out of a written off 2006 Dynamic. On attempting to start, all the dashboard warning lights came on and stayed on. Absolutely nothing from the starter motor - not even a click. I hooked up a battery charger to make sure enough juice was being delivered. Then the dash display went completely dead - no warning lights, no sign of life whatsoever.
The replacement engine consists of the main block and cylinder head. I've retained the original manifold, throttle body, injectors, coil packs, ECU, alternator and starter. Fitted a new clutch, water pump and timing belt.
Short of plugging in a diagnostic tool, can anyone offer advice? Is it likely a replacement engine could cause all the warning lights to come on? Could this be a simple case of having to carry out some sort of reset?
Thanks in advance for any suggestions.
