Hi again Frank, I really am at a loss now, I assume (!) a Nissan mechanic who has been one for many years would know if it was NATS problem, he said if it was NATS problem, the red warning alarm light would be constantly on with ignition on, mine is not, it seems to be behaving correctly. There...

Oh well, another update................. Nissan mechanic came out after work, checked all the obvious "things" nothing. Put a test light on injectors, nothing happening so he thinks........its probably a break in the wire from the ECU..... coming back on Thursday with a diagram of the ECU wiring...

It came with the black box, roll on Monday!

Hi Frank, It came with ECU, ignition barrel and key and 4 door locks. I will check but I do not remember seeing a "transponder ring" what does it look like?

Well thats another £60 wasted! Car STILL will not start. I now have a Nissan mechanic who has kindly offered to come on Monday, SURELY he must know how to start the ******* thing!

UPDATE Just been quoted £184 for a guy to come out and sync the keys/ECU! Errrm, thanks but no thanks! Orderes a ECU and ignition barrel of E-bay for 50 plus 10 postage, fingers crossed and if there are any religoius people on here, pray for me/car, thank you.

Hi again, I have 2 keys but the car does not have cental locking or remote locking, a very basic car, it even has window winders that you turn!!!! I have found a couple of Auto Locksmiths close to me so will contact them Monday to see what they have to say. I will NOT give up!

Hi Frank2, are you certain of this, if so, I assume the keys need matching with the ECU and this is a "main" agent's job? I can buy a ECU and ignition barrel for £60, this may be cheaper than a main agent, what do you think?

Hi Rudy, yes, I have tried that but again, if the immobiliser is not working correctly, why have I a spark and fuel up to the rail? Does not the immobiliser stop spark/fuel to disable the car?

Many thanks for replys............. There is NO warning engine light on, there are NO codes showing. Ducker, I know what you mean BUT if the fuel pump is U/S it would not pump fuel when cranking, would it? It does not pump with just ignition on only when cranking! Still making my noose!

Hi Matt, I like "shots in the dark"! Have you any idea where the sensor is in the ignition? Spoke to an AA man today, he thinks...............ECU problem. Just started to make a noose for myself!

No, only track rod's and the rack can alter toe in or toe out.

Hey ho, thanks anyway Frank and also for all the advice you have given me, even if I still have a non starter!

Hi Frank, do you think we are the only two on this site! I know they changed a lot on the Micra around 2000, I think I will end up towing to my local Nissan dealer, its not the £65 plus VAT hourly rate that scares me, its the cost of "genuine" Nissan parts they decide to fit!

Me again, "fuel problem" a few posts down......its now getting silly, can someone help? Had a mechnic with his head under the car for 90 mins, NOTHING! Can someone please confirm this, if the ignition is switched on, the fuel pump should pump fuel with the pipe disconnected at the rail into a...
