98 2.3 Auto Wont Start

[marpick]

Hi, I know this has been an issue I've read in other posts but all was fine until it stuttered and cut-out last week, got it going again and it's been ok but now won't start at all.

 

Door LED goes crazy and there's no spark at the plugs, together with a beeping off the dash when I turn the ignition.

 

Is this a typical relay fault???

 

Any advice welcome before I shell out for an auto-electrician!

Have you tried another key, can you here the fuel pump kick in when you turn key in ignition ? Edited January 30, 2011 by mikej

Mikej,

 

Have renewed the drivers door lock which was faulty but still no go, zero spark at the plugs so I'm at a loss as to what to do, could it have anything to do with the infamous relay 30?

 

I only have the 1 key so I cannot try an alternative!

I have a 2.8 Galaxy and last week it did the same, I joined this forum in seach of an answer (I am an auto electrician) everything I read on here sugested it was the key code and that I needed a locksmith or the main dealer to re-code the keys.

Locksmith would not touch it, saying that if it has lost the code once it could happen again.

Main dealer charged me

Mine cut-out at 40mph and restarted after a few minutes.

 

Sluttered a bit here and there and came out the other morning and no-go......

 

Not sure as it appeared to be an intermittent fault that it's a recode job, suggests like yours it's a wiring fault!!
