Title: Electricl problem
Post by: al50 on 20 January 2008, 15:43:29

Hi guys not had too many problems in the year and have sorted most of them by going through old thread but this one has got me beat at the moment and hoping someone can help.

2.5 with LPG. reversing on to the drive she stopped, started again ok but then stopped again. Wouldn't start again. Noticed that the EML wasn't coming on and also the LPG display was dead.
Checked all fuses under steering column and the ones by the battery all ok.
Have noticed that the lambda sensor connection to the loom has broken and take it that the live has touched the gearbox and shorted out.  
Have got no fuel no spark, checked the crank sensor and getting 487 ohms across the pins so its not that.

run a paperclip check. for code 19

Sounds very much like the crank sensor has failed.

Have you tried though? when the crank sensor fails it does not bring on the EML.

Did try nothing, also put a meter on the crank sensor that is fine,
