I just bought a 1997 Range Rover, Wont even turn over next day of sale.

OP
You fit ICE as a delivery job?

- you do know you disconnect battery before pulling electrics about? This includes not pulling the head unit out while it’s running?

Could the fusebox be fried ?

We know these fail. I dont remember where the fuse sits for the head unit.

Number 1 under passenger seat in LHD.. also runs instruments,window switch pack, puddle lights and door switch's if I remember right...

Borrow a good battery, then you'll know if its that or not and not spend any ££ on it

If he’s keeping it he will need his own.
I guarantee it’s not just the one problem - fix all.

Substitution for a known good unit is good method nevertheless

Luck of the draw TBF.

Most p38s were built on a Friday by a newly devorced blind pensioner on LSD.

so quality lacks in areas.

If reliability is your main point of interest and yer in Merica.

Buy a square body suburban! Bombproof!

Id rather buy something like a crank shaft sensor or something that is broken than replace the battery that could be ok ?

I've lost track, was the existing battery even tested? Is the alternator giving a decent charge?

He removed stereo with engine running and it spluttered and died then cranked and wouldn't start then won't crank... ignition key and door key different so someone has been messing before...still think he's disturbed wires if you look at pic and flattened battery trying to start it that's my thoughts...

He just seems determined to live in whichever he world he came from, whilst merely existing in Green Oval land.
He wants quick fixes, easy by-pass of electrical systems, refurbished batteries, to run with warning lights on without consequence.
Oh and to subjugate himself to American beliefs. NEWSFLASH American football is for those not brave enough to play rugby. :,

I love them cheer leaders...
