Fault reoccurred today. I tried Sierrafery's suggestion of replacing starter relay with R3. No improvement. I jumped out the starter relay with my trusty paper clip and the engine ran fine. I pulled the fuel pump relay with the engine running and the engine died in 2 seconds. Stopped the car. Replaced all relays and tried to start it - no luck. Used paper clip ran car for 5 mins, moved it on my drive. Replaced all relays and now it starts fine. Using the diagnostics
Onto ECU P1668 = Anti-thrift alarm serial link fault drive cycle A occurred 2 times, signal too high fault is currently not present. What do you think is faulty?
That's the Passive Immob I think ... set by the main dealers ... only the drivers side opens ?...
Dragged this off of the web;
SYMPTOM VERIFICATION OF ACTIVATED PASSIVE IMMOBILIZATION
1. Unlock the vehicle and wait one minute.
2. With the ignition off, verify that the
anti-theft alarm LED in the instrument pack blinks slowly.
3. Turn the ignition key to position "II" and verify the alarm LED is on continuously. This indicates an immobilized condition.
4. Check that Passive Immobilization is on by attempting to start the vehicle with the LED on continuously.
5. If the vehicle does not start, confirm that Passive Immobilization is turned on as follows:
^ Turn off ignition and remove the key.
^ Press the unlock button on the
plip once.
^ Attempt to restart the vehicle within 30 seconds.
^ If the vehicle starts normally, Passive Immobilization is activated. The BCU must be replaced or reprogrammed by Land Rover after contacting the LRNA HelpLine.
hope this helps ...
