Back at home now. Had to bring the Mrs and the kids home. Recovery on the way. Sending a man first to have a look at it. Doubt he'll be a range rover expert but you never know.

@Gilbert I'm pretty sure that i was getting nothing. Just the click from the becm that you mentioned. All lights come on as normal. When i turn the key, the only thing that happens is the radio restarts and the leds on the gear shift go out and come back on.

Just been back to car (its in another village). Checked fuses. Nothing seems out of order. Had a spate 30a relay in car so tried that in place of R2 starter relay and R16 starter motor. No difference.

I did notice that although pressing my fob unlocks the doors and the led on the fob lights up, when I put the key in the ignition, it doesn't flash. I'm pretty sure it used to. Is that right?

Hi Gordon.

Xyz is good I think. Changed within last 6 months and dash shows correct gears. I've got it in P but no dice.

How do I check immobilisation? I've got no dash warnings. Locked and unlocked car to make sure. Key flashes as normal when you insert it into ignition.

How would I jumper the starter solenoid relay? I have no idea.

I'll check maxi fuses.

Thanks

Hey guys

Major issues.

Car won't start. I st turned it off 5 minutes ago and now nothing.

All lights come as normal but when you turn the key, nothing. Doesn't attempt to start. No warnings. No dimming lights.

Starter motor?

Currently blocking someone's drive with 3 passengers. Help!

lol. Is that you in it?

You thought about getting one of these mate?

Make sure you have some Weetabix before you lift it! lol

Wouldn't have thought it'd make a difference. In the interest of thoroughness though, i've uploaded V5 for you here

I reckon you need to get the right cable.

As fitted by a few on here. Physically about as big as you can fit in. More aH and CCA than those Halfords ones. Next day delivery to your door. 4 year warranty.

Tried it all over. Nowt!

The only difference in my setup is that there's an mcx connector in the mix. I bought the necessary adapter though.

A disappointing day. I did manage to update the app though so it's a much more polished interface with logos and stuff. Next step will be speaking to the local radio fitting man for advice. Probably need to go down the active antenna route.

I was going to ask you about the flow patch for the automation rule. I'll give it a go on mine. Nice one.

Went to Maplins. Got the bits. Built it to spec. Looks great. Does it work? Does it shite!!!!!

Can't even get static out of it. I've tried everything and i dunno where i've gone wrong.

advert says "needs new pipe on radiator has over heats"

would that be the top hose with the tape on it then? lol

Also appears to be missing a fan. Might need one of them too to stop it overheating.

Drivers footwell looks suspiciously mucky too.

I've just looked in my software. There doesn't seem to be a manual option to change com port. When i do it by usb, it just auto detects. Perhaps you're right in saying it's expecting to see it on com 1.

When you've connected, it'll automatically download your settings and then you'll be able to change stuff.

Read up about diy DAB aerials last night as I'd found a few links with people reporting success. Have a read through the links and see what you think. I might give it a go at the weekend. Maplins sell an mcx to coax converter so it'll be easier to wire up than fiddling about with a little mcx connector as that's what the usb dongles have.

If indeed it does work, the perfect place for it will be up the side of the windscreen behind the plaggy trim.

Gasp

Orangebean. You had me believe you'd sourced a genuine one!!!!

New pipe on. £10

Took 6 litres of coolant. Ran it at idle for a good hour whilst drinking beer with the next door neighbour and it held a steady 90oC.

Heater still blows cold unless you give it some revs but the lpg is working so the circuit is more or less there. I'll go back out in the morning and top up if need be and hopefully the air will have worked it's way out. I'm determined to get to Ikea!!!!!!!

Yep. If you're on the A689 to sedgfield anytime soon, take a UV torch and you'll see the trail.

There's a few versions of the software but i found the only one that works is the one i gave you for download which is for sequential systems.

The links Lpgc has put up are the ones he sent me. I have these cables and they work perfect.

Coolant is nice and clean. Its also green cause thats luminous dye. Put it in to find a little leak.

Dunno. Its the hose that came with the car.
