200tdi wont start???? any ideas
whitewolf:
OK....now I feel really stupid :oops:
you are indeed correct,cheers, after an hour of charging the battery she sprang in to life!!! I guess the really obvious things we always pass off.
But if an hours use of the interior light is killing the battery its definately time for a new one!
Guardian.:
that battery is knackered mate, get a new one before winter gets here!
DEANO3528:
If you are used to a normal spec battery, try a 334. It has 670 amps and is usually HD spec for Shogun.Pajero. It's what I had on my RR when it had the Paj engine and I swapped it over to the Disco when the RR went. Certainly turns the old Tdi over fairly sharpish!
hobbit:
More than likely the battery has a cell down,enough to kick it into life initially, but on a slow drain, well you found out that.
Get the battery load tested at a garage or battery specialist, but dont be too quick to buy from them, have a look around at prices and types before comitting

AArrggghhh, ok went and purchased new battery, installed it and still [!Expletive Deleted!] all :shock: , so I thought I'd better make sure it was fully charged which it transpires it wasnt, so it got given a nice over night trickle charge and all was well with the charger( yes i desconnected it :wink: ).....
.....came back from work re-installed and still [!Expletive Deleted!] all,hhhmmm duff battery ??? and sure enough it seems to have not held charge( to be changed today ) but out of need i charded the original battery, which altough not great has held charge.
Reistalled the old one and nothing, the alarm didnt light up, no c/l or windows, all lights work the dash lights up and now...not even a click from the starter relay, just one click on the key from under the dash???
Could my worries be the alarm/immobliser system?..if so how do i remove it?
Cheers in advance for any help.
