Ok Guys as I have not been here since April 2007 somebody I would say has opened a thread similar.
I got a problem and I have tried for weeks to rectify.
Vl commo wont start now.
Previously it was driving nice then was just cutting out anywhere at any RPM.
I have changed AFM Checked all fittings Air fittings/Electronic plugs under boots and Voltage checks. Car Started touch the throttle and it would die (Something an AFM is responsible for and have tried 2 other AFM’s)
Changed CAS (Crank Angle Sensor) and rewired plug on top of dizzy as i found under the boot 2 wires which measure 5v where actually corroded and was detached.
Car drove perfect for a week to and from work. Then the problem arose once more. Cranking not starting had a wiggle of wires fooled around and she fired and was good Lasted a few days Now dead again checked over everything I have done and seems to be fine
Checked plugs Leads, Coil and Dizzy Cap and changed which I moved over from my old white Vl . No luck
Error Codes pulled from ECU are the usual like 23(throttle switch) and 24(neutral switch) easily cleared. NOT Showing 11 (CAS) and 12 (AFM)
Am left with 21 (Ignition Signal Switch). If i reset the ECU and clear the codes it does not show this value. Clear codes again and it shows up its intermittent <----- Possible Cause
I also have tried a different ECU no luck. Both Fuel pumps Low pressure/High Pressure are running and i have good fuel pressure no leaks etc.
I have changed over the PT (Power Transistor) on the dizzy also to see if it was malfunctioning. All fuses/ Relays are good.
I’m basically outta ideas lads as all she is doing is Cranking but not firing. Thanks for reading this Essay but I don’t want a mechanic stooge to charge me for doing the same stuff I have already done
Cheers…
