Disco No Start - Land Rovers Only

IWANTADISCO · 11-28-2006, 02:12 PM

Help, My wife went to crank the Disco today and she got nothing. We hooked it up to a car to jump it off and still nothing. She says that when the key is turned on all the digital instruments come on, but the car won't turn over. I am heading to take a personal look at it in about an hour and just wanted to see if you had any ideas as to what might be wrong.

The same thing happen to me and it turned out to be my starter. I did not need to replace I just cleaned it very well. and tightened bolts. Hope that helps.

Try and reset the inerita switch on the passanger wire wall and also try to reset the alarm by locking and unlocking the door 3 times slowly then see if it will turn over>

Sounds like a defective starter motor solenoid.

All great suggestions. Thank you!!

Mike, can you tell me where the passenger wire wall is??

Mike, good call on the lock/unlock suggestion. We did that and it started right up. I hope all others take note of this rather than paying a towing fee, etc.!!!!!!!!!!!!
