Does the engine turn over ?

Pop the bonnet and see if you can hear the starter solenoid click when the ignition key is turned to position 3 ?

Put all lights and fans on and turn the key.  Do the lights dim ?

code 19

Crank sensor (or more likely, it's wiring) is knackered.

Use a genuine GM replacement only.

Not a bad job to do - accessed from underneith, passenger side :y

Not for at least a few days - you could always DIY? :y

I'm in London W3, I work near Brentford/Osterley. Always willing to assist, although I have no tools here in London. I'm planning to pop home next week, I can bring some tools back and change that sensor for you  :y

IF I get time and if it's not piddling with rain, I could potentially come over on Sunday if you've got the part.

Seriously consider either getting it done locally though, or DIY, as it might not be totally cost effective for you  :-\

Feel free to PM if you'd like to discuss :y
