You could check the crank sensor isnt loose in the bracket .
Haven't tried easy start yet - I'm in a very small town somewhat remote in the Austrian Alps so a little tricky getting stuff like that.
Another thought, I'm not sure if it's always done this or if it's only started since the van has come back from the various mechanics, but the red light between the fuel and water temp guages (at the top of cluster) is flashing. Is this the immobiliser light? Van also honks the horn when locked sometimes now
I only have one key for the van.
Does that red light always flash when van is locked and unlocked? Today I had a look at wiring and took fuel filter out etc everything seemed ok. A bit of sh*t came out in the diesel from fuel filter but nothing out of the ordinary I don't think.
If I can get it started again (our of pure luck) i'll drive it back to the ford mechanics an hour away tomorrow and they can have it until it's fixed.
