OK in between showers I have been trying got get my car started since before Xmas. The engine will turn but not catch and no sound from file pump and I can't connect to the ecu via a code reader.
As mentioned in other related posts I have tried the usual suspects and whether it is a coincidence or not the fault appeared a week after I had replaced the resistors on the heater.
In addition I also had a few bottle in the boot which I thought might have hit the relays.
Anyway I bought a Windows laptop to run OP-COM and also to run the TIS 2000. The OP_COM won't connect (as expected) only pis 7 seems to work.
Sometimes the car will start and ecu connection can be made and all seems well until I try to start it again.
Working through the TIS I checked power to the ECU and no power (pin 18). With ignition on or off.
TIS says there is a fault between the fuse FB8 and the ECU.
Checked the connector X3 and power to there to the ECU (pin13). Therefore I assume problem is somewhere between.
Any ideas?
