Hi all,

 

I have a 2001 mk2 2.3 Galaxy, I have a problem , I turn the ignition on

and have alldash lights etc. when key is turned the engine does not turn

over, I can hear a buzzing from the dash, poss relay or starter motor.

Hi carl welcome to forum,

If all you hear is clicks its your battery not having enough juice, a faulty key immobiliser allows engine to turn for 3-5 secounds.

There's been a lot of frost draining battery's its the season for it.Try jump starting or borrow a battery.

no clicks just a buzzing sound from the dash

no clicks just a buzzing sound from the dash can still mean the flat battery its at a very very flat stage check that first .

Then check for a blown fuse or duff relay.
