    Default VT won't wind over

    Hi All
    Got a huge problem with a mates vt, hopefully someone can help...

    Got a vt thats been sitting around for about 6 months now, and it don't turn over.
    When you turn the ignition on, all the dash lights come on, but fuel pump, blower fan, engine fan and everything else don't work.

    I've eliminated all the basics (fuses, relays, wiring), even replaced pcm, bcm and key.
    For some reason, self diagnosis fault ain't working by jumping the diagnosis plug.

    Any help would be great as it going to cost too much to get it towed into a workshop just to put it on the computer since i'm so far out of town...

    After sitting around for 6 months there is a good chance that the battery is low on charge.

    I thought I was wrong once but I was mistaken.

    Not necessarily. Try starting it with jumper leads. Also, after six months the petrol in the tank will probably have gone off, so you will need to drain & refill with new petrol if it doesn't start once you fix the cranking problem.

    when you bridge the diagnostic are you getting 12
    bcm and pcm and key must be linked with tech 2 or all from same donor car
