muddychris300tdi Posted February 10, 2009 Share Posted February 10, 2009 Hello people, for a while now and then my 300tdi disco wont start. On turning the key i hear a click like the starter motor engages but then nuthing else. I'v cleand both ends od the earth lead and cleaned he battery earth. Am i in need of a new starter motor or could it be something else. Chris Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

pwam2006 Posted February 10, 2009 Share Posted February 10, 2009 Also do you have an aftermarket immobiliser fitted? All 3 of the discos i help run had problems with the immobiliser getting in the way of proceedings....? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BogMonster Posted February 11, 2009 Share Posted February 11, 2009 In that case and if you're sure you got a good solid 12 volts at the terminal on the solenoid, its either the starter solenoid/motor or a bad earth somewhere. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
