Cutting out.

lathbury · 6th August 2015, 07:02

I have an 02 cdt which would not start this morning, the key was dead, eventually it started but cut out after five yards. The u/b pump is working. Then the engine cranks without firing. Any ideas please?. Thanks. John.

Thanks Mike, The AA came and tested everything and it was a fuel pump relay under the glovebox. Thanks again. John.

Humm strange ,you have said the UBP is working but as much as i know the fuel pump relay powers the two pumps in parallel (intank+Underbonnet )

The AA man got the car going, and to show me what he had done he
, he took the relay out and the car stopped. He put it back and the car started. I hope he knows what he was doing as we're off to Scarborough ln Monday. John.
