addi Posted March 10, 2005 Share Posted March 10, 2005 ok having rebuilt the car just as it was previousley after changing the turbo ive gone to start the car and it wont start .. not even a splutter .. it will turn over but nothing happening, i had the battery off for 2 days, not sure if this may have anything to do with it .. also i have found that the yellow traction control light is flashing which it has never done before .. any ideas??

supra-alex Posted March 10, 2005 Share Posted March 10, 2005 if the lights come on inside in the car then it wont be the battery, did you actually charge the battery overnight though ? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lovatt Posted March 10, 2005 Share Posted March 10, 2005 not the battery as it wouldnt turn over, sounds like an imobiliser fault or you have left a plug off something Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ian C Posted March 11, 2005 Share Posted March 11, 2005 The return line hose is usually best, you can take it off at the top of the fuel tank and stick it in a bottle or something. -Ian Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ian C Posted March 11, 2005 Share Posted March 11, 2005 The black box thingy is your charcoal canister Ignore the trac light for now, I've found that after messing with the battery, ECU, whatever, the trac control can get the arse, but the *second* time you fire the car up it's fine. If it's still flashing after a second successful engine start, let us know Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
