Hi Doug,
I'm new to the forum ¬iced you are well regarded for advice - I wonder if you could help.
I have a 1995 P38 4.0
I used the car on Monday but left the tailgate open for a few hours, the next time I came to use it the engine wouldn't turn over when trying to start.
I put it on charge for 2 days. A few times during charging the alarm activated.
I've bought a brand new battery, turn the key to pos 3 no response. I've checked the starter moter, it turns given power directly, and also the engine will turn when the solenoid &starter are given power directly.
Even tried the key in pos 2 ( normal running ) and jumped the starter to turn the engine but it will not fire. There is fuel in the rail.
The key activates / de-activates the central locking, I've reset the key-fob when replacing the battery and done the EKA procedure. A friend also had the RR diagnostic on his PC, plugged it in and no errors or apparent code issues.
I've also replaced the key fob batteries.
