Expand Used to be a reset which worked a couple of times. Engine off key in the ignition, open one of the windows. Wait 10mins, disconnect the battery for a few mins and reconnect. Don't open any doors or try to start for another few mins. Fingers crossed. If that fails then it could be time for petrol and a match although it would have got that earlier if I had my way. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Expand just found this on google, Put the driver's window down and open the bonnet. ... If you have a battery cover remove it. ... Switch the engine off and remove the key (DO NOT Open the doors) ... Wait for 3 minutes. ... Disconnect the vehicle battery and wait 15 seconds. ... Reconnect the battery, wait 10 seconds (DO NOT open any doors) Still could be a dodgy starter. solenoid or relay though. 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
