Non start problem

Post by Jameth1980 » Sat Jun 16, 2018 12:31 pm

Fuel gauge reading a quarter I've pit in 2 Jerry cans to see if that would help no difference, been read only code we got was 1e25 monitoring, speed sensor any help would be appreciated as it's been sat in Aldi carpark since Tuesday

That error code seems to be connected with the crank sensor which will stop the engine starting.
:ant: Never anthropomorphise computers. They hate that.

I would try the cam sensor very easy to change(front end of the rocker cover).

Were both the sensors genuine?....as you still have the code coming up for crank sensor if it is genuine BM automatically give a two year guarantee....

This might be worth a punt....spray a big load of easy start in the intake box and try starting it...better if there's two of you one spraying and one starting...if it does fire up its an injector problem...if not your back to that crank sensor.....

Just had the injectors done as had fuel pressure fault, new line pump aswell, tried the easy start would get a rumble but die again. Genuinely if this wasn't sat in a carpark surrounded with cameras I would torch the heap of shit it's had problem after problem

There is no specific fuse for the crankshaft sensor....as it stumbled with easy start Im thinking its fuel supply thats the problem.....

It's just a heavier sound when you turn it over not really close to starting there's fuel coming through the filter, had it on inpa 3.7 bar pre supply 375 high pressure when turning over
