Hi people,
I own a Mk6 Ford Transit 2.4 TD51 plate, 2001. Basically what's happening is that it does not start... always.
I turn the key on, wait for the glow plugs light to turn off and try to crank it, nothing happens. Just a single sound from the engine compartment
like a click but not quite. Sometimes before I try to crank, I could hear some kind of whirring noise. I switch everything off and repeat, several times, and then it fires.
What I have excluded so far. Relay 1 and 13 ignition and starter. Switch on the ingition and key block. Looked under for any signs of corrosion
on the starter motor contacts. Battery is tested good. I don't know what to think other that there could be a problem with the solenoid on the starter, or the ECU has gone crazy? Any input would be appreciated
Thanks!
