Have range rover p38 dse was running fine battery went flat. Charged battery now just spinning over can hear fuel pump on then stop but still not starting no code being displayed. Just window not set

no year car told and worst no engine told and is an engine question.
1994 to 2001 made. 3 engines 1 is diesel,2.5 BMW
any car that will not start ! the driver cranks the battery dead.
so sure it can NOT start THE ENGINE now.

the shop manual says in this case keep the battery charged
to diagnose all fail failures, EFI,engines or all electrics
resetting the BCM does not fix this.
yes pulling battery neg lug for 15min and back on resets computers.

there are 6 to 10 causes of a dead starter motor, and battery dead or loose rusty lugs tops the list,
ever jumper cable , jump start a battery? call the AAA AUTO CLUB AND SAY JUMP ME rovor?
NOW IF THE BATTERY WAS CHARGED AND WE CRANK IN PARK WE FAIL WE CRANK ALL CARS IN NEUTRAL , SEE IT DOES CRANK?
HEAR THIS , THIS CRANKS BUT WILL NOT START

WE CAN NOT HEAR YOU CRANK YOUR CAR, DEAF AND BLIND IN THIS TEXT BOX.(ME)
IF IT DOES CRANK FAST, THAT IS A NO START ONLY !
WE SAY CRANKS FAST BUT WILL NOT START. (BATTERY GOOD)

AND HAS UP TO 50 CAUSES AND 20 TESTS AND TOOLS TO FIND IT. (CHECK ALL FUSES. AND SCAN THE OBD2 SCAN PORT IS FIRST.
THE CAR NEEDS SERVICE FOR SURE.
the only tool less tests are
fuses
and cranking in neutral.
just 1 eye and 1 hand does it.
ok one more engine oil all leaked out. engine seized.grin! dip stick dry, via Mark one eyeball check/.

I got this free Pdf manual from an online store for free and I don't think Ive visited a mechanic or fixya for help for more than 3-4 times out of the all the times I fixed the chipper in these 4 years

key code lock out usually happens when you have entered the wrong code too many times leaving the battery connected should allow the timer to run down for 30 mins so you can try again, it is cumulative though so the more you get it wrong the longer you have to wait. make sure battery is fully charged first.

I have referred your problem to Graeme Cooper automotive and should get advice within a day or so. However, I had exactly the same problem on another vehicle, also changed the filter and oil. It worked for a while then failed completely.

First, check under the vehicle for any leaking hose that could be causing a pressure drop. Failing that, the bad new is that you probably have a dud torque converter and/or bad clutch packs and it will be an expensive job

Sounds like something is overheating then and possibly a sensor. Not familiar with Rovers but might be a problem with the CAS and/or CPS which tells the ECU the motor is running and when to fire. Also maybe the IAC is bad and when you go from throttle to idle it can't control it and allows it to die.

Hi Adam,

Bring your vehicle to an auto parts or battery store. Ask if they could perform a 'Load Check' on your battery. This not only checks the voltage, but also the amps, as if it were under the load of turning your engine.

It takes a few seconds and the results are pass or fail. Fail means it's time for a new battery. Pass means we need to look elsewhere.

Comment back the results.

Hope you find this to be very helpful

Is your battery good? fully charged? It could be ignition or distributor module. Might also want to check the crankshaft position sensor.Check your fuses/relays for fuel pump and make sure your fuel pump is coming on when your key is turned to the on position.

hi i have a range rover p38 2.5 diesel it starts but wont drive when you put in drive

Hello,
It turned out to be a broken wire on the injector which was causing a bad connection,now running better than before.
The cold was just a coincidence.

Thank you and best regards,Yvonne
