About John McInnis
Expertise
Land Rover Discovery. I've had most of the common mechanical failures, altenator, water leaks, wiper failure, door/hinge problems, roof rust, floor rust, loads of electrical problems. Remember, I'm not a dealer or a mechanic, just an owner like most of you.

Experience
Owner of a Discovery. I've had many mishaps with our Disco but I still like this vehicle. Talk to a fellow LR owner instead of a dealership rep. I'm not in this for the money. I'm just an owner who wants to help others.

Land Rover Repair - vehicle cant start

Question
i have denfender td5 2005 model sometimes it start,sometimes does not;when you crank it the revcounter rise and the check light appers on the dashboard it blinks,on the test book it shows noisy crank singal please help

Answer
Hi Klaas,

could it be the crankshaft position sensor is faulty?  Without a clean signal, the PCM is not activating the fuel pump relay and thus you get crank but no ignition.  You might see P0335, P0336 and P0340 codes with this problem.

Best of luck,

JohnMc
