Hey,
Just looking some advice ive got a problem with my VT not sarting, i have been reading through posts and getting crank angle sensor, BCM, Fuel pump, fuses, battery terminals, loose wires..

Went to the shop and came out 5mins later to the car not starting for me, it will crank over but not fire up, the key buttons have stopped working to lock, unlock and pop the boot, so i thought the battery had died in the key fob, went got the spare and still didnt work either, cleaned the key and around the connections to the ignition barrel thinking it wasn't makeing a good connection for the immobiliser, still doesn't work! when i turn the key to start it the immobiliser light goes off, checked fuses, battery terminals and for loose wires and all looks ok, left the key in on position for 2hrs to override the security system as stated in the handbook and this failed also, still cranking but not firing..

(98 VT Execetive 3.8l Auto)

Any ideas?

Thanks

Do the interior lights and headlights work? I'm having the same problem but i'm guessing mines the battery because i got no electrics.

If it was only it was something as simple as a key... my spare doesnt work either. I just done the error code check on it and got 12... one flash followed by two short flashes.. but i had my batt disconnectd over nite so not sure
