nidge Posted June 29, 2012 Share Posted June 29, 2012 My good ladys, Disco 2002 td5,has started acting up - bit of a strange one - happened 3-4 times now and always when in a fuel station. Car running fine stop the engine - then go to re start and nothing , dash lights all on as they should, turn the key and not a budge out of it .?? No dash warning lights, can hear fuel pump running etc. Now here is the strange thing - will start after about an hour, and usually after I have pushed it out of the way !! Any help or ideas appreciated Tks Nigel Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Richy B Posted June 29, 2012 Share Posted June 29, 2012 Yep it's radio waves, happened to me twice in our freelander, pushed it round the corner and starts up fine, happens a lot in hospital car parks also, the off road shop gets a few calls a week with this very same question, Although apart from pushing it round the corner I don't know what the answer is :0/ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nidge Posted June 29, 2012 Author Share Posted June 29, 2012 Sorted I think. The small wire to the starter motor had a poor connection , cleaned and reconnected.. hopefully solves the problem and didn't cost me anything either ! N. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
