Ford connect starts then switches off and won't start again

Postby MPHALL » Sat Sep 05, 2020 7:52 pm

Hi everyone, I have a Ford transit connect 2008, it starts up most of the time but sometimes it cranks over but wont start up. When it does start up and I'm driving it, it runs decently but will just switch off while I'm driving and won't start up again even though it is cranking over. I have checked the fuel system and everything is fine, and my snapon tool is not registering any fuel related issues.

I do have a p141a code which is ERG related if anyone with a fix for this I would be appreciative, but my main issue is the non starting but cranking over issue and the random switching off while I'm driving. Any one with suggestions

It may be worth replacing the ignition switch, as they can become faulty, causing exactly these problems :idea:
1994 Mk4 SWB 115 Minibus 70ps Di (R.I.P.)
1997 Mk5 SWB 115 Minibus 70ps Di (Gone, but not forgotten!)
2004 Mk6 SWB T280 Medium Roof 85PS 2.0 TDDi - Vantunered (Also gone)
2008 Mk7 SWB T280 Medium Roof 85PS 2.2 TDCi - Also Vantunered
