Hi,
Just look at the tube from the air filter box, if there an aluminum box bolted down with three bolts and some wired its EDC.
Look at the image here,

The reason for asking about one which does start I know the older non EDC's in good nick just ping into life and I think we need a fault finding guide for the EDC because loads of us are asking the same question and it would be good to work something out.
Mine runs really well but is a bugger to start on cold days, or colder days.
I think we have a load of normal stuff that applied to both non and EDC versions like glow plugs lift pumps, glow plugs three times etc which may work, but I think there must be some stuff, like water air temp, air flow etc which we can check.
I want to find out how to get the EDC ones working well, mainly because I have one and starting is the only thing that bugs me with it. Mine starts every time but turns over for 5-15 seconds to do it, this is going to bugger up the battery at some time.
Just picked this out of the land rover workshop manual;
"Under start up conditions, signals from the crank speed and water temperature sensors are relayed to the ECM to control starting fuel quantity and injection timing. Once the engine has started the ECM initiates a ’closed loop’ monitoring system for fuel quantity, injector timing and EGR relative to the appropriate engine operating conditions."
So if the normal manual stuff is ok, it might be the engine crank speed and water temperature sensor, now oddly my cruise control packed up and the crank speed sensor is used for that as well and it can be tested on the move with a multimeter, the water temperature again can be tested and if I can find the wired to the EDC I could test that circuit as well. Got to love Land Rovers.
