JP200
Accelerating Away
Hi,
My 300tdi 90 1997 County took me 20 mins to the recycling centre yesterday for a ‘quick trip’ to drop some bits off, but I returned some 6 hrs later on a low loader
No issue getting there but when I went to leave, non start.
Turned key, ign lights on but just a click. Tried again, ign lights, click turn then no ign lights, no click no crank no nothing.
I have no ign lights, even the clock and door courtesy lights are inop.
What I do have is, an alarm that I can hear clicking when I press the fob (LR) but no flashing lights, the horn still works with the alarm and there’s a secondary siren under the bonnet somewhere that still works. The side lights still work but not headlights, the hazards do not work. It won’t take a jump but the battery is over 12.6v anyway. I have no lights on the dash at all aside from the dial lights when I put the sidelights on.
I’ve no idea where to start. All fuses in cab look fine but I’ve no idea if there are in lines.
So before I start pulling bits apart, any suggestions? Anyone recognise these symptoms?
Thanks, James
