hi ppl im new to this so please bare with me i have a range rover p38 gem engine 4.6 i need to check if my ecu is getting power so i can use a sync mate to sync my becm and ecu together hope someone can help cheers in advance
First check fuse 37. Then if that is sound check relay 19 for function. If they are sound Syncmate should sync code in ECM with code stored in BECM. Only if codes agree will BECM ground power from relay 19 going through ECM and switch it on.

Know even less about LPG. I'm a complete novice. My understanding is that it will start on petrol so shouldn't affect it. I'm just starting with the basics cause that's all I know. Saint and Wammers etc know WAY more but if they're busy eating cake I guess you'll take what you can get.
Location might mean there's a member nearby who can help, preferably with proper diagnostics. Could be a sensor has given up the ghost.

Not sure as it won't have started, if you follow me? That's why we need one of the experienced members!

Just seen that. Honestly, Tomcat can't look at an input shaft without breaking his zipper and Saint cannot look at a V8 without retiring to the smallest room in the house for a break.

No known cure for it either

Not entirely true. In extreme circumstances a Roverectomy can be performed, sometimes combined with a replacement prosthesis such as a Yank-Tank or Jap-Tat. In these cases flaccidity is guaranteed, albeit with a high incidence of post-operative suicide.
