Hi all,
any help appreciated.
D5 XC90 going fine this morning. two 1 mile trips, no problems. An hour later, will not start. all lights on dash come up, but no starter motor function at all. I have checked all fuses. Tried jump starting it. Left it charging for 20 mins via jumper leads from another running car. nothing works.
Stuck in Park, and my NZ-spec car doesn't have the little hidden manual release under the front rubber insert that the internet says should be there to get it out of P.
I have also disconnected the boot battery earth for 15-20 mins, twice.
the brake pedal is completely hard - no travel - so perhaps it won't travel far enough to allow the car to start.
no fault codes either on touch screen, or on my OBDII reader
