Sounds like he might have problems of his own.

I'm on tenterhooks here!
 
marcinbrighton = i got a text of Rick yesturday asking me to check a few bits and bobs but not really heard much other than that he has tested the ECU and BECM and i aint sure what the results are as yet etc...

i hope it get fixed too as im sick of seeing it sat dead 6 weeks its been stood and only owned 6 1/2 weeks .......

Oh the joys of owning a Land Rover.

Any way, it's going to get sorted, and not broken up for scrap and parts.

If its no spark at the plugs then there must be a break in the ire that sends the signal to the coil packs It used to be siple when there was one set of points controlling the spark but now there is a combination of crank sensor,rev counter.lambda sensors,knock sensor,and temperature sensors. It could be any one of those also the wire sending the signal to the coil packs so i think a continuity check on all the above is needed as maybee you fried a wire in the loom when it shorted. this is just a desperate attempt to try and help you but all the above may have been tried.

I've already mentioned about checking for continuity from ECU to coils....:eek:
 
Still no news not sure if no news is good news in this case though...

im lost what it can be but all im thinking and dont even know if its possble or has any of these ethier..

1, fuseable links somewhere ??
2, Blown alternator possibly ??
3, Another fuse box

the reason im saying fusebox to be honest is this bear with me ok....

Ok what if.... the short happend on the bottom of the fuse box, o the brown and green wire which i believe goes direct to the EBCM and has continuity through it to the ebcm from the fusebox end, but it blew th 50a fuse when it shorted Maxi fuse 2 so,, YES i did try sasasneks full fusebox inc relays and fuses and all working fine on his car after a new ebcm and fuse had been replaced and ** yes it still did not start*** but since then i refitted m original thinking it made no difference but heres my thinking what if i had two faults, as i refitted m original fusebox, then a crank sensor and two coil packs then, a engine ECU and snced in as well.... what if i had blown the fuse box and engine ecu, refitted my fusebox ie still blown, then fitted an ecu coil packs etc and still have a blown fuse box whats the chances do you think ????

still no news from rick as yet
 
Lost track a bit but didn't Sassenach try your fusebox on his and it worked?

Let's wait and see what Rick finds and then take a restock from the beginning, following the timeline through.

No Rob tried Sassanach's on his car - Sassanach then refitted his own when he got it back and it was proved good.....

We haven't as yet qualified Robs Fuse box as good ......
 
Still no word from rick with me I'm afraid. I sent him a text yesterday morning but not heard back as yet.

Rob - if you wanted to try your fusebox on a known good car, and sassanach can't do it - you could always send it down to me to try on mine? Can't guarantee I can turn it round in a couple of days at the moment, especially as it looks like I'm driving mine to North Wales on the 10th to pick up a new front axle(!) but I'm happy to give it a go as soon as I can on mine.....

That's what I thought neo your Ebcm ECM and fuse box need testing on another car , to be sure
 
I think Rick has his BECM and ECM, just trying to get Rick and Rachel (my RR - no comments - I'm sure I'm not the only one on here that's named their p38!!) together.

fusebox as my last post...?

Na Tis ok I said test all of it ages ago, yes mine a v reg I call it Vanessa as that's my bosses name and she a right bitch
 
Marc, i got a text of Rick last night saing he was having issues of another kind and will get to mine asap think he is mega busy but seems to be the man for the job to be fair...

Im contemplating buying a fusebox to be honest...

Just to confirm yes Rich has my EBCM doug supplied and both engine ecu's original and the one i bought used as well....fuse box has been substatuted and still didnt start but mine aint been tried on another car yet...

Mine has got a name too but i can not type it on here its just plain and simple name mind C***
 
if you want to test your fusebox then send it to me,my rangie goes back on the road on thursday but its a simple job to swap over.personally i would wait for rick's input before you do anything
 
yeah i am waiting for his input i was just trying to pre empt the next stage thats all its starting to get to me big time its sat here 7 weeks now not running i can see whats going to happen to be fair i will phone someone to take it away soon its annoying me that much....

not quite there yet but i cant see it sitting here in another two weeks one way or another anyway....
 
Hang in there bud....lets see what Rick has to say, he is very good at his stuff so I can only imagine he is uber busy....
