Itll not start. Or start and randomly cut out when you dip the clutch. Generally not running right because it cant pick up where the. Crank is

Ok, Thanks
current status is
Engine turns over but doesnt fire
Replaced relays 18 & 30 - no change. Relay clicks when key turned
No warning lights come on when key turned to 'on'.
Do i go to a replacement crank sensor from here? Thanks
-sorry, but i am fishing in the dark, and have zero comprehension of electrics :rolleyes:

Not scanned. What scanner do i use?
Will double check plug spark
The lack of dash lights/display should be a simple prob, surely?
Thanks for bearing with me

Bulbs gone out. Earth.
Without a pic of the dash its hard to see what you mean.
No ign lights ie nothing on the dash works.
Should be a obd2 scanner on a mk3

No, nothing on the dash seems to work
Are those scanners easy to find?
