Fault symptoms

Engine will not start/Engine stops.

Conditions

The following conditions apply for the current fault symptom:


- No DTCs stored in the car with the fault symptom in question.

- Starter motor in order.

- All fuses whole.

- Battery in good condition.


Diagnostic help

Most functions that are involved if the engine will not start or stops while running are monitored by self-diagnostics and thus generate DTCs if they are faulty.

Fault diagnosis covers faults that are not monitored and could make the engine either not start or stop while running.

Checking the wiring

Jiggle the wiring harness at several points and in different directions to detect intermittent breaks and short circuits. Observe the multimeter, diagnostic tool or test lamp during the check.
