Check the earth strap between the chassis and the engine for corrosion. (It’s at the Aux belt end)

...Help Identifying Fuses Please Does that loose earth wire go to the 100 relay? If yes, it connects to the same chassis ground point as the battery earth strap. You should be safe to turn the battery around and connect the earth strap. and then confirm each red wire before you connect them up.

check all main power and grounds for corrosion. engine earth strap, gearbox strap. main chassis earth points. there is a few relays as part of the main ECM power flow. got any pics or screen shot of the scan? or live data? ............. 350bar = 35000Kpa so rail pressure should be in...

Sorry not quite following you on that. as it is in pic the battery side of shunt has the earth from P- and the earth from the Inverter. there is only the earth strap on the earth side of the shunt. Are you saying i should have the inverter connected to the other side of the BMS, B- ?

Noob question but where do I find that?

Ground strap is good, fuses all look good. I haven’t inspected the wiring harness around the ECU but it hasn’t been touched around there so can’t imagine it being that, plus the time lag whilst it’s doing it is always exactly the same. I’d expect varying time durations if it was a wire break or...

How do you get to the M13 hex bolt ( re the tension pulley) on the euro5 engine, I have dropped the alternator. I can see 2 bolts 16mm head, for what I think is the power steering pump But can only get at the nearside one. Spanners are either too long or a short stubby, not enough leverage to...

Need to do some basic fault finding. start with the main terminals and the earth strap from the chassis to the engine (cam belt end)

...Then fit pin wire in pin 36 Pin 11 goes to the ebox under your main battery. It’s a bugger to get too. I found removing the thick black earth strap allowed me to pull up the row of plugs high enough to remove the bottom black and purple plug. You use a thicker pin wire connection to fit into...

Can I throw in a couple of random thoughts? Have you checked all of the earth straps between battery - chassis - engine? Are you measuring the voltage between the +ve terminal and chassis or -ve terminal? If the latter try the former. Ditch the digital meter and use an analog one, that will...

Hi mmi I measured the cam and crank speed using live data both were giving me a speed signal when cranking. I’ve been in at the relays and fuses all seem to be powered up Thanks I was wondering if the electrical fault was sending me on a wild goose chase.

...motor if you can get to the large positive. Disconnect the battery first to avoid shorting the large positive to earth though! Check earth straps. Have you tried removing the earth lead of the battery and allowing all the ECUs to reset? Could be a dead relay or fuse not allowing a...

Thanks for the advice.

glad your sorted. . . @Loz should take the credit for this. (corroded main engine earth strap) hes mentioned it in the past a few times. I've not come across the issues myself on a T6, but i have seen it on other vehicles. an old skool jumper cable is the easiest way to prove the fault. ...

...running and flattening the battery. Have a Search EDIT: The battery still shouldn’t be flat after running a small electrical pump for 10 minutes so it maybe you also have a defective battery which needs load testing / replacement. Also check the main earth strap on the right hand side engine...

https://aasolar.co.nz/wp-content/uploads/2020/04/Installation-Manual-of-LCD-Battery-Computer-100S200S400S-with-smart-shunt.pdf this is my shunt meter - the thick earth goes directly to battery behind and the other is to DCDC, earth strap is to seat bolt.

Check the earth strap between the chassis and engine (look down the left-hand side of the engine). Also, try using the neg lead of your jump leads to join the battery negative terminal to the engine block.

I will need to get that checked. I looked at the ground strap. The studs and nuts are very rusty. Is the corrosion issue with the actual earth cable itself or is it the fact the suds and nuts are corroded an issue? The alternator obviously is charging as the day I picked the van up the...

It attaches to the engine mount bracket, just to the right of the timing belt cover. The earthing strap for the engine.

...black square relays with the numbers on, over to the right out the way and held them there with a screwdriver I unscrewed the big black earth strap and moved that out of the way The plug you need is black and purple but there are 2 black and purple plugs. And of course the one you need is...
