I think my P38 is cursed
went to start it this morning and no start , winds over, no warnings on the dash, no smoke not even an attempt to fire ,Im thinking that the leaking injector has let the fuel drain back and can't hear the tank pump run so that's probably buggered too the list of jobs is progressively getting bigger

Right chaps I got to have a look at my P38 last night and found it cranks but no fuel plugged my crap on scanner in and I have fault code (27 anti theft device ) I'm assuming that the key has lost sync ? But I don't get an engine immobilized message on the dash ? And the led doesn't flash on the top of the dash either after it's been unlocked with the key ? It also has 12v on the solenoid on the back of the FIP with the ignition on ? Any of you lot come across this before?

It needs the car to be unlocked with the FOB to mobilise the engine and let it start unless EKA and immobiliser are turned off in the BECM which can be done with Nanocom.

Ok seems odd that I have been using just the key for weeks and has no messages on the dash etc not even sure they key fob works tbh I do have the eka code for it i think tho
Could be loss of sync between EMS and BECM.

Nanocom job or can it be resynced manually?

EKA code may do the job.
Nanocom or Syncmate or similar diagnostics. Might get lucky entering the EKA or resymcing the key and unlocking with the fob.

That's what I said but maybe not very clearly.

Well the key does not want to sync with it and the eka code won't enter no chirp from the alarm and just operates the locks and does no more , comes up with the same fault code 27 anti theft device , safe to say it's a brick actually I think a brick would be more useful

Is yours a manual? The sidelight warning light should illuminate each time the key is turned when entering the eka code if it does then the input is being sent to the BECM.are you entering the eka correctly?I believe @DanClarke did a guide.Well the key does not want to sync with it and the eka code won't enter no chirp from the alarm and just operates the locks and does no more , comes up with the same fault code 27 anti theft device , safe to say it's a brick
