Soldato
I could do with some help please.
My sisters Peugeot 306 1.6 Meridian refuses to start, the starter motor solenoid was knackered and kept playing up intermitently so my dad removed it (along with the power from the battery)and left it in this state for a week whilst my sister sourced a recon motor.
He put the new starter on today. Fired up the car, it ran for a few seconds and died. Now it refuses to start at all, it turns over but doesn't seem to fire.
I'm almost convinced that the imobiliser has kicked in, according to the manual there is a chip in the keyfob which the car recognises.
Having the battery disconnected for a whole week might have caused this to lose recognition?
I'm baffled, Ideas please!
EDIT - This car has NO imobiliser panel to key in a code.
