TD4 non-starter

Hi All

Changed glow plugs this weekend (pig of a job).
Put everything back together and it won't turn over.
Put the battery on charge, took everything apart to double check my work.
Put it all back together and still nothing.
Did a scan and it's throwing up:
CAN message failures P1E00
Vehicle road speed signal malfunction P0500
Cleared it and tried again, now it's still throwing up those two +
EWS Immobilisation malfunction P1DF5

Any ideas what I do next?

Hi,

Does it’s start before changing the glow plugs ?

Yes, but there were issues with 2 of them.

If It is the freelander 1, you had certaintly removed the inlet manifold for changing the plugs. Check the sensors that you had unpluged.

No starting, … some hints may help, like does it crank …

No crank, getting nothing.
Sensors connected, checked connectors on glow plugs.
Battery has 12.6v

You've most likely dislodged the thin wire to the starter motor. It has a spade connector on and corrodes. If not check voltage to this thin wire when cranking.

Jump solanoid to starter if cranks work back...

Hi,

I don’t think that has something to do with the glow plugs. If the car was poorly starting before it’s probably something else.

So if the starter doesn’t turn. Check the battery connectors.

Thanks all.
I'll check around the starter tomorrow.
