Retroanaconda Posted December 19, 2011 Share Posted December 19, 2011 How's your battery's health? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Anderzander Posted December 19, 2011 Share Posted December 19, 2011 Is the starter motor turning at all? if not then maybe have a look at the earth from the ECU. Is the starter solenoid clicking but its not turning over? if so then the contacts in your solenoid are favourite. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
matthew74 Posted December 19, 2011 Share Posted December 19, 2011 If the battery drops below about 10.5 volts it wont start. Mine did this if i hadn't driven it for a few days, due to a duff battery. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

101sean Posted December 19, 2011 Share Posted December 19, 2011 Healthy battery should be around 13.4 volts, reckon yours is duff. They go from working to dead quickly in a Td5, like most modern electronically controlled engines they need full volts to work. Mine wouldn't start recently, trigger wire on to starter was solenoid was manky and loose. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WHO4 MUD Posted December 20, 2011 Author Share Posted December 20, 2011 Td5' s up and running again it was the trigger wire on starter moter, some 120 grit sand paper and a tooth brush sorted it out. who needs a nano com when you got lr4x4, mega Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
