    Why won't my 2018 LDV T60 start?

    LDV LDV Advice LDV T60 LDV T60 Advice

    The engine won’t start in my 2018 LDV T60, but battery is charged. Lights come on the dash, but nothing happens when the start button is pushed with the brake pedal pushed in.

    It seems like the fix here would be an obvious one, but there’s a number of potential causes for a fault like this. Let’s start with the actual starter button. It could have failed internally. Or the starter motor itself might have either failed or simply had a critical wire fall off its terminal. Perhaps the immobiliser system is not arming the ignition as it should.

    And here’s one from left field: Is the transmission in Park? If it is and the engine still won’t turn over, try putting the selector into Neutral. Both Park and Neutral should allow the engine to start, but most people only ever try it in Park. You could also have a poor earth or iffy battery terminal which is allowing enough current to pass to illuminate the dashboard lights, but not enough to actually crank the engine over.
