delboy Posted September 29, 2009 Share Posted September 29, 2009 try putting the battery on charge if it bump starts then it's not the immobiliser. get it going & give it a good drive about without lights or radio on then stop the car turn off (do outside house) then re-start it if it dont start then i would check relays or remove battery & replace it or charge it overnight sounds like battery to me m8. had same a while back Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

stef123 Posted October 12, 2009 Share Posted October 12, 2009 start by checking the connections on the starter motor, sounds like it might be the exciter wire. its the very thin wire that connects to the solenoid. i would also check you get a voltage on the exciter wire when you turn the key to start the car.
