Transit non start

Postby Trevor jones » Mon Jan 27, 2025 8:51 pm

Hi everyone I’ve joined here so I can find out more information regarding my Ford transit. 2015. 2.0 engine
Right so I start from the beginning.
I was driving my transit van for a few weeks and everything was good
But one evening before Christmas my alternator light came on. And my van started to die. Apart from the front head lights.
Anyway a bit further down the road it came to a complete STOP.
So a friend of mine came out with a spare Battery and the van started right up and I drove it home
Got home and turned it off
A friend of mine came round and took. The alternator off. For me and replaced the 2 drive belts. And the Alternator
I’ve now put 2 batteries on the motor and it still just turning over and don’t seem to fire. Up.
Please can anyone help me with this matter.

I'm a little confused...I was under the impression the 2.0L Panther engine didn't start production until 30th May 2016..?? How do you have a 2015 2.0..??
