Ok got an update I found that the connections inside the relay holder in the engine bay were extremely loose while the engine was running a slight touch of the wires going into the relay holder would cut the engine out I took the holder apart and tried bending the connectors in but they were...

Today I removed the engine relay from the engine bay and used a jumper to like bypass the relay and nothing :( I then removed the fuel pump relay and jumped that as well and again nothing :( But I tried again and the second time it started :D I thought ok, must have been a dodgy relay but then...

another thing I noticed before this happened was there was some crackling from the passenger side speaker when turning the radio on, dont know if that is related or not?

Thanks, I have the fuse / relay holder undone and sitting in the footwell area so see it clearly and I have the cover off the relay so I can see it operating and it does nothing from as soon as the key is turned. I also have the fuel pipe off the fuel filter so can visibly see if fuel is coming...

Had another look at this, the ECU isnt sending a signal to ground the FPR. I grounded it myself and it worked and the fuel pump realy activated and the fuel pump kicked in what can be causing this to happen? Faulty ECU? Thanks

One thing I noticed was when I touch the fuel relay I don't feel a click from it when turning ignition on. I've tried swapping it for a known working one but still nothing There's 12v going to the fuel pump fuse What tells the fuel pump and coils to activate / become live? The ECU? When the...

Checked all the fuses with the multimeter and non are blown. If I pull the main engine relay while the ignition is on I hear a humming noise from the engine bay stop and then start again when I reconnect the relay so I'm guessing the relay is doing something? But still no fuel coming through as...

Thanks was hoping it would be that but tried a new crank sensor and still the same :-( Done some more checks - Removed the coils and I was getting No Sparks Removed the fuel pipe and no fuel coming Connected the fuel pump direct to 12 volt and it pumped through fine What controls the fuel...

The mighty Micra has died today :-( stopped at some lights and went to set off and cut out. Took about 8 seconds of turning over to get going again and then cut out again. Took a few attempts to get started but then died again after a few seconds. After a few attempts got it started again...

Seems to have sorted itself out, I did remove and spray electrical cleaner on the maf so maybe that helped. Connected it up to the computer at work and there was nothing stored in the error memory Hopefully it won't do it again Thanks

I will have a look thanks. I'm thinking maf or icv, maybe the maf has a coating of oil as the air filter feels oily From the crank vent pipe / pcv....

Is there some software that I can use? I have a obd cable that I use on my BMW with inpa to read faults etc Thanks

Had a look and they seem Ok. Started it up with the Airbox off and wiggled pipes and wires around and it was fine went to remove the maf but it uses stupid security torque screws, I have them in my kit but don't have my kit with me lol..... What other parts can I clean on the intake side of...

Thanks will have a look, is there any pipes to look at in particular around that area? Started fine again today but after 10 minutes it started doing it again.... Feel like an idiot stopping at zebra crossings with it revving up.....

Started the car again when stone cold and idle is perfect so it seems to only do it when hot after a long drive

Hi my Micra had been sat parked up for two years as it was not needed but now it is coming out of retirement and going back on the road. I stuck a new battery on and a can of fuel and it started first time and sounded nice and smooth :-) but when applying some throttle the engine bogged down and...
