Kyral210 Posted November 26, 2009 Report Share Posted November 26, 2009 The other day I went to start my car and nothing happened. I own a Mk3 Golf, 1.9 diesel. I turned the key to the first stage, all the dash lights come on, the glow plug light goes off, I turn the key, and then nothing. No clicks, no spluts, just nothing; silence. The Haynes manual says it is possibly the relay for the starter motor that has gone. However I have no idea which of the relays controls the starter motor, or even if it is the relay, as I am never 100% on trusting Haynes books. The glow plug light has never been 100%, not always coming on, but the car has always started no problem, even when the light never came on. The last time I ran the car the engine did star with a slight hesetation, which I think is a first. ANY help will be really appreciated as I can't afford the £100 per hour labour garage to do a simple job I could do at home for parts cost.

benjie Posted December 30, 2009 Report Share Posted December 30, 2009 Look in the fuse box, just above the bonnet latch, and take out the suspect fuse... Haynes will be right. You'll see easily if it's gone. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
