Title: Engine won't stop
Post by: blueboar on January 17, 2008, 18:34:48

Hello

On our td5 130, when you have taken the ignition key out the engine continues to run, the only way to stop it is stall it.

Also the fuel pump is always on and the ignition lights stay on on the dash board..

Any ideas???? (besides hitting it with a very heavy hammer  )  :roll:

Eeek - nightmare !

I'd start with the switch on the back of the ignition barrel - maybe it's goosed and the contacts have shorted ?

Next stop would be the fuel pump relays in the black plastic box under the drivers seat - where the ECU sits............you've not been through deep water lately have you, the seat boxes are not water tight !
