[mickydibble]

thanks , 19ca6431 and yes it turns over but wont start!?

[alessioblaupunkt]

19ca6431 This is engine number.
I need Engine code. It starts with Z or Y.

Example: Z13DT or Y17DT
Check as many fuses as you can.
Do a scan and report fault code.

[mickydibble]

i can check fuses but have no reader , novice here! well worse than that even haha

[cactikid]

possibly crankshaft sensor,codes would need to be read.

[Meat-Head]

Ok start with

1) radio needs a code, right now minor problem - remove radio see if you can find a radio code thread by serial to bump.
2) disconnect battery for 300 seconds, worth a try.
3) is there any lights flashing on speedo cluster
4) try other functions, indicators horn etc.
5) eBay, uk seller ?30 "Opcom" use it once paid fir its self think you will need it.
6) up to you, your location, see if dk member nearby

Best way is to do a scan.
Problem could be: immo/ no spark/ no fuel/ missing supply / faulty sensors/ dirty throttle body

If you can't do a scan, crank briefly then stop and remove one spark plug. Report if it is wet or dry.

[mickydibble]

thanks for advice Alessio , i will come back when i check everything said. i did put extra fuel in..

You have to put fuel only in tank. If you put fuel somewhere else it will not help the engine to start.

if happen after battery flat ,you have to program immo again,and car will start.you need tool to read immo pin then program immo and all be fine.
dont waste your time on fuse and checking spark,
you need immo programming.

[mickydibble]

do i need this then http://www.aliexpress.com/store/product/OPEL-immobilizer-PIN-code-reading-Auto-Immo-Reader/403696_375073437.html ?

[flyins]

No this http://www.aliexpress.com/wholesale?SearchText=op+com&catId=0&initiative_id=SB_20150409132820 and an eprom reader or even easier as looks like you going to be struggling the CARPASS card that should be in the owners manual or ask car dealership for it, four digit number
Also just read your posts again and you say car cranking over? So you got corsa c ? or later d?

[gttuning]

just see if that tool read immo pin from your car and you need op com to program it or some other diagnostic for opel.
i use avdi for immo pins,so dont know this tool you looking at.

hi some quick questions.

1. is the fuel gauge showing over 1/4tank.

2. does the engine light come on with the ignition- before crank.

3. can you hear the fuel pump prime with the ignition on.

4. any orange lights flashing with the ignition on.

5. double check the battery terminals make sure you have connected them all. also check the earth connection from the battery to the body.

6. does the dash display operate correctly; sometimes bad connection at the multiplug on the rear of the instrument panel

good luck like other have said invest in a scanner opcom is good

[mickydibble]

1. yes a quarter tank
2. yes
3.i think i did hear it initially
4. non flashing
5.checked connections/took off for 300 secs too, tightened connections
6. looks ok

Wicjed it worked, that's great, proves your not a retard either.

right, car fault. Fault car, next step, to hell with the expense, go buy a crankshaft sensor.
THINK ?36 for genuine I think


ring the local stealer parts, then ring local motor factors, if you try "Euro Car Tawts" then ask if it is "OEM quality or 51ht from china" then ask "does it come with a warranty form"

jack car off, use stands, or if your on a side street, park on kerb.

if your fat forget it, if your thin crawl under Neath, passenger front wheel. In the middle of the hub, you see driveshaft, 2" round bar, follow it towards gearbox, then the diff, drivers side, one bolt, squeeze plug its off.

if you have fat hands bribe some teenage dirtbag to do the job.

2x justin bieber 404.

If a car lost immo after battery change I'll delete that car manufacturer from my good manufacturer list.

Hey Micky, listen to me: disconnect component and measure resistance: sensor must give 700 ohm.
If not, change crankshaft sensor.

If resistance is nearly 700 ohm, there must be a problem with the wiring coming from ecu.
Check short circuit to earth or short circuit to positive.

If nothing again, Bosch ME1.5.5 kaput.

[mastaflex]

i have allready seen ecu damaged after battery replacing or error when plugging booster. but it's rare

there is also another test to see if crankshaft sensor is ok , just see rpm jauge when crankingif it move a little , the sensor is ok " usually between 150 and 220 rpm from starter".

[mickydibble]

Sorted guys :) , after replacing crankshaft sensor it cracked up first time :)
Thanks for help

[Meat-Head]

Great more info, price, supplier, fitting time.

press the thanks button a few times or rep button if you want

[mickydibble]

it cost ?16.50 http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/BOSCH-VAUXHALL-OPEL-CORSA-TIGRA-AGILA-COMBO-SIGNUM-CRANKSHAFT-POSITION-SENSOR-/160665692915?pt=LH_DefaultDomain_3&hash=item25686beaf3 not long to fit but a mate did it so not sure how long... he said the bolt was a bugger to get out, but the new part just slipped right in :)
