Car won’t start, will crank over and over


Recommended Posts

Hello all, would love someone to try and shine some light on my issue I have. So it started off when the abs, traction control and handbrake light all came on Speedo didn’t work and fuel gauge wasn’t reading correct, decided to get the car plugged in to find out when the issue was. The scanner (vag com) wouldn’t read the obd and was acting as if it wasn’t plugged into the car. Tried a different scanner (snap on) also did the same. So we cleaned the fuse board up with electrical cleaner, also disconnected the ecu cleaned the plugs up with electric cleaner and then the scanner(snap on) would read the car. Afew codes came up one of which was cam sensor p3007 no signal. This sensor has already been changed and isn’t even a week old also traced every wire back no breaks in the engine side. Anyways after this we cleared all codes, tried to fire car up and all it’s does is crank over and over again, won’t fire at all. We replaced the engine loom thinking that there could possibly be and issue with that. This didn’t fix it, took every fuse out and replaced them, this didn’t fix it, the whole dash has been taken out of the car looking for anything breaks in the wires ,relays ,fuses absolutely anything. The car doesn’t show any codes relating to why it won’t start. Any suggestions or someone having something similar would be greatly appreciated because we have completely ran out of ideal. Thanks
 

I posted this on Facebook last week, since then I’ve cleaned all earth points, checked every fuse, changed relay 447 and 103, tried a different bcm and ecu and nothing still. Going to try cam sensor but the rev gauge moves slightly to 200 rpm so would suspect it’s fine. Any suggestions and pointers would be greatly appreciated, booked in for an exhaust made in 2 weeks so really need the car fixed

Have you checked the cam timing? If it's out it won't start and it will throw the cam sensor code, if it's out then check that the belt isn't damaged, you're looking for any missing teeth on the belt.

Have you checked battery voltage?

Haveyou checked you have fuel in the tank, the fuel pump is working and delivering fuel?

 

Checked ignition? Sparkplugs sparking?

 

What engine? Petrol/Diesel, Engine code?
