Hi all,
Sat for a couple of hours listening to the radio today and the battery went flat, fast!
Tried to jumpstart it and it wouldn't fire up, even though it was turning over ok after a few mins booster charge. Tried fatter cables, still nothing.
AA guy fully boosted with a pack and van hook up, didn't work. May have been a little flooded at this point but not even a cough. He ran diagnostics on every possibility and everything showed up as ok, all relevant ignition components operating fine. All fuses are fine and the fuel pump is kicking in and delivering as it should. Checked all connections and cleaned contacts.
The guy was totally puzzled and determined. His only explanation is that the coil burnt out or an ECU spike. Turns over fine... But just won't start.
Battery is now off and on charge but not sure what to do next.
Any advice greatly appreciated!
