rgn 0 Posted January 6, 2007 Hi Guys, strange fault this one. When cranked there is no spark, but if I remove the distribitor and turn it by hand there is a good fat spark and the injectors fire etc. Put dibby back in and try starting and there is no spark! I took the dibby out to try and prove the ecu, dibby etc. Any Ideas please? what does the factory immobiliser doe? Thanks Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Supercharged 2 Posted January 6, 2007 Maybe ignition switch or ECU relay? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
rgn 0 Posted January 16, 2007 A big thank you to SuperCharged it was the ignitions switch. I've changed 3 of these on golfs before, but when these have always caused the car not to turn over, never to turn over but with no spark! PS a new swith from the dealers was £18 not too bad when a pirate copy was £11.50. Thanks again Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Supercharged 2 Posted January 16, 2007 No worries - yeah they break in strange ways sometimes!!! £18 well spent, the black ones are far better than the cheapo copies! Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
