Vr turbo not starting properly

[Peial]

Ok so a few months ago my 3.8 decided it would start for about 3 seconds then die. Iv tried duin a diagnostic test but wouldn't even recognse my car even tried paperclip bridge to the connecter but check engine light stayed on. A note is that iv put a turbo on it but it has had no problems except burning leads because they are to close to the manifold would this of cause a short out somewhere?

has it been tuned?

if so, disconnect the battery, then reconnect it again.

turn key to on for 1 minute, then off for a minute. do this another 2 times.

i have to do this with mine whenever the battery has been disconnected.

Fixed it. Sort of it's been semi tuned using a rewritable flash chip I removed the chip and was able to rev it up. Iv got a relay to kill power when I'm not using it might of deleted the tune or something. Cheers for insight mate

What was the issue?

Is something to do with the chip it goes when I take the chip out but if I put it back in it dies going to try retune it in next few days see if that works

So, shrink your photo like most of us do. 9 times out of 10 I have to shrink the photo to large before it will upload. TBH 5mb is pretty generous on a forum.

Try lowering your camera resolution.
