we seeking advice trying everybody in the know at the mo...
our cars developed a electrical fault and hubbys banging his head on a brick wall at present .
up till wenesday been working fine then stalled and wouldnt start. after a few turns of the key i got it started and got it home, since then its started once every 6 - 8 turns of the key .. got some advice and we put a new crank shaft sensor in, a new ignition coil and cleaned the ecu relay..
any idea what he should be trying next? hes had the spark plug out to see if its firing and theres no spark.

e also tried a diagnostigs (sp) but it wont connect up .
thanks in advance

helps if you give us vehicle details

sorry mind at a loss at the moment its a

p reg, petrol 2.0 litre

free bump to get T14086's attention

well hubby made sure there was no errosion on it , are we going down the right track by replacing it with a new one?

if you hold it does it click (relays operating) when you switch ignition on?

yes it does click , turn the key and it clicks twice?

does car have fitted immobiliser?

spark plugs wet?

yes it has the immobiliser but through this forum we bypassed it as per insturctions and the spark plugs are not wet.

does the fuel pump prime?

we havn't checked that bit yet. there is no smell of petrol, even after trying to start it for about 5 minutes. so it might possibly not be.?

hubby says i dont explain things very well, he has cchecked and cleaned the connections on the ecu and on the double relay. when you turn the ignition on te relay clicks then clicks again. there is also a click from a relay in the fuse box.

how do yu tell if the fuel pump is priming?

by disconnecting fuel pipe at convient connector in engine bay...turn ignition on & fuel should shoot out,obviously observing all safety precations.

its a bit dark and cold to do that tonight hubby will give it a try tommorow.

if there is no petrol ! then what.
if there is petrol ! then what.

think T's just trying to narrow it down.
TBH you can often hear the fuel pump whirring for a second when you turn the ignition on
