Car electrical fault


Recommended Posts

Can anyone help me with this problem please? I have just started to have trouble when I try to start my wife's car it turns over ok but sometimes won't start then if I turn off the ignition then back on again it starts ok, I have also started the car and it has then stalled. I have also found it to judder like its misfiring when driving, Has anyone got any idea what could be my problem?

Thanks for any help given. alan p.

If its got one my first instinct would be the EGR valve, Failing that it could be the igniter or main relay/circuit opening relay or coil pack, these would all cause this fault. Also are the plugs/leads ok? and is the engine lamp on?

 

What's an igniter?

Many find diagnosing these types of problems really difficult when they can hear the car running, if you are a newbie there is little hope online.
