Andy730 Posted November 30, 2017 Share Posted November 30, 2017 Hello to the group… For various reasons for the last couple of weeks I’ve only used the landrover when I have to… Thus it stands, not moved for more time than I’d like. I know the battery goes flat if not used, so I’ve left it on ‘trickle charge’ for a couple of days. Today I tried to move the vehicle. The car unlocked ok with the key fob, when I put the key in and turn it, no ignition lights came on… Yet if I try and start it, the engine turns over OK, until I assume the immobiliser disables the starter? It doesn’t appear to be the battery giving up and a 2nd, or 3rd attempt still turns the engine over OK. The landrover has just 35k miles on it, and most of those are mine. Anyone got an idea what I could have a look at?? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sharp Posted December 1, 2017 Share Posted December 1, 2017 Lack of dash lights suggests a faulty ignition switch. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Peterwallace Posted February 10, 2018 Share Posted February 10, 2018 Hi, wonder if you can help me. have a Defender Puma. Worked fantastic but suddenly will not start. Check the battery and it was poor so changed for a new one. It will still not start. The light go on, the dash goes on, no crank, no sound of the solenoid either. How can I know if it it got inmobolized or if it another problem? If inmobolized how can I reset it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
