Guest dominodon Posted November 22, 2009 Share Posted November 22, 2009 first thing first.. does the car crank over have you check if your geting a spark, and have you check if fuel is going to the engine. ? Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Steve GT Posted November 22, 2009 Author Share Posted November 22, 2009 fuel pump is working you can hear it when you turn the key but the engine wont even try turning over. you know like if a batterys dead it does atleast try and turn over but it wont even try do it. so thats why im thinking immobiiser has cut out the starter motor or ignition etc Quote Link to post Share on other sites
200sx-Starlet-Jay Posted November 22, 2009 Share Posted November 22, 2009 put it into gear, take hand break off, rock it backwards and fowards so the engine makes a rotation, put hand brake on, clutch in, and start her up mines done it 2 times now, everything seems normal, you then turn key it makes a click and then silent! if it aint battery, its more than likely the starter is jammed. giv it a shot and let me know!Jay Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Guest dominodon Posted November 22, 2009 Share Posted November 22, 2009 as the man said, Or sound like somethink is cutting off the engine- immobiiser Quote Link to post Share on other sites
