Volvo S40 1.8 (54reg) Battery replaced but wont start
Hi,
I’m a new member and looking for some advice. My car: Volvo s40, 1.8 p, 2005 Problems thus far: * battery died as the vehicle was not in use for months * replacement battery with brand new Bosch battery and car won’t start. I get power and dash display lights up but car will not turn. * checked battery with multimeter and fine. * tried jump start and nothing. * tried towing and kick start and nothing. * when turning the ignition all you hear is an electrical buzz sound and car doesn’t turn. * suspected the battery is drained from the siren control module and ordered a replacement modul. Awaiting delivery. * low battery on key message appears on dash intermittently. Questions: * If the battery in the siren control module is gone or if you removed the unit can you still start the car? * is it an immobiliser issue? * what other checks can be done and advice on how to do it I.e. alternator/starter checks? Any advice would be appreciated! Cheers San Last edited by San88; Mar 31st, 2021 at 11:21. |
