Fuel inertia switch? / Fabia 1.2 mk1 wont start after speed bump

Featured Replies

Hi,

So yesterday i hit a speed bump and my car shut off, i cant hear the fuel pump going when i turn the ignition. Wondering where the fuel inertia switch is? Does the srs box have anything to do with it?

Thanks for anything,

Help greatly appreciated.

Yes, the SRS box contains an accelerometer which cuts the pump and sets off the airbags and pretensioners.

Since you haven't had a full deployment it can't be this.

You must have damaged the pump or the relay.

Which year is your car, and which engine variant (54 or 64 bhp)? The electrics are slightly different between the two.

Does the engine turn over on the starter, but not start; or not turn over at all?
