evert have a 1992 3.9 Range Rover LHD based in Tenerife. It starts immediately every time but will not restart when turned off after a short or long run. Waiting 15 to 20 minutes it will then start again. This can be pretty awkward at times if I forget the problem and turn it off in the queue for fuel!!
The issue happens in P and N so I do not think it is the inhibitor switch or wear on the linkage.
I have read everything I can find about this and I am hoping it may be the starter relay but not sure where this is located on a LHD a vehicle. I do not have a copy of RAVE unfortunately.
I would be very grateful for any pointers as over here it is virtually impossible to find anyone that can work on these vehicles and I have done most things myself but am no electrician unfortunately.

Is it crank but no start or no cranking?

I'd go for the inhibitor switch first as you say and check the linkage, at least you can rule it out.

Hello, yes, I would take a look at the switch if it was easier to get at!! I am hoping I can get to it from inside the car once centre console etc is removed which I will try at the weekend, I can just get to the round plug from underneath the car. Many thanks

Hello everyone, I have traced the fault to a badly corroded wire to the starter solenoid. Thank you all for your time and thoughts.
