1.7 Puma Died, wont start????????????
Change of thread now. Was in the car earler and the car died while going round a round-a-bout. When you put the key and turn it the dash will come on and all electrics work but it wont start. The starter won't work and there are no noises from the relays or fuel pump? i'm suspecting the immobiliser/ecu is at fault.
The red light flashes untill i turn the ignition on then stops. So i removed the end of the ignition barrel and used a screwdriver with the key well away from the sensor and the same thing happens. On our ford KA the light flashes then goes red for a few secs before going off where as the puma just stops as soon as i turn the key.
Also the remote locking is still working fine.
Im i right to be thinking its the immobiliser? Any other suggestions?
Thanks Craig.

Cheers guys. need to get a diff reader. i only have vag-com and an OBD2 which wont read the puma.
Bigger problem now anyway. we just nipped out in the car and it died while moving. It wont even turn over. There is no starter noise etc and i dont think i can hear the fuel pump primeing. Immobiliser problem maybe?

Well have you metered it out and checked fuses?
The fiesta ( and by association the puma ) is renowned for killing ECUs so if all fuses and relays buzz out ok I'd try getting hold of a spare to test.
