Hello,

Please help. I recently bought a 2014 Primavera with 250 miles on the clock. Yesterday I took the dashboard off to clean inside and since then whenever it is in the sun for a long time it doesn't want to start. The ignition turns over but the engine won't fire up and the red immobiliser light stays red. You can't hear the fuel pump engaging. I've changed the battery and it's still doing it from time to time. I turn it off and on a few times and then it goes back to normal.

Any ideas?

Thanks,

Ben

Check all of your connections, you may have loosened something. Also check the antenna and its wire, and make sure the antenna is in its proper place.

I hope that by now, you've fixed the problem! Facepalm emoticon

Check for spark, or if you are lazy like me, spray some instant start in the intake. If it does not fire and run for a few seconds then you probably don't have the spark plug firing.
