Hi all,
Hoping someone might have some suggestion for trying to diagnose the cause of car cranking fine but not starting and scan tool returned a slip ring error (check engine comes up after cranking for a bit).
Car is series 1 VY calais l67, alternator started playing up and car sat for a few months while I sourced a new one. After fitting the new alternator it started fine then conked out, now won't start. Battery is new and I've tried a new slip ring and new key (immobiliser light turns off with new and old keys). Some combination of these steps seems to fix most people's issues from posts on here.
I've poked around the slip ring to bcm circuit and havn't found any obvious issues, although I don't know a lot about chasing down electrical problems. The key, slip ring and ignition barrel all seem to be making good contact/showing continuity, wiring to bcm and bcm connection seems fine. Also tried swapping out relays and fuses.
Does anyone have any suggestions?
