Jimny won’t start? was created by Mxstuu
Driving along the road on Friday night my jimny lost all power and cut out, tried to re start it and it just wond over, tried putting jump leads on it and it still just wond over, tried putting a jump lead from the negative on the battery to metal on the engine to act as an earth and there was still nothing, does anyone have any idea what could be causing it?


It has near a full tank of petrol

Turn the ignition on to full without turning it over and listen for the fuel pump buzzing for about 3 seconds. If there's no buzz then the fuel pump is either kaput or isn't getting power.

Look between the top of the fuel tank and the body from the driver's side with someone else turning the ignition on and off if it does buzz to check fuel isn't squirting everywhere from a leaking pipe. I'm guessing you'd smell fuel though.

After this I'd try to get any diagnostic trouble codes read but don't pay a fortune for a garage to do this, not that you can drive it there.

Generally, only the crank sensor is capable of stopping an engine dead by way of sensors. So you could take a punt on a new one but I'd try to get a code reader to read the codes with the ignition on to confirm it. If you look on eBay etc they are cheap enough but only generally work on twin cam engined cars because they are OBD2, the system the readers work on.

Google any codes you get and report back here.

Other sensors failing lead to poor running but not complete stoppage.

Other electrical issues are the same unless the ecu is fried, but that's unlikely given you were driving it when it stopped and they are reliable. It's not that.

Let us know.

After replacing cylinder head Jimny doesn't start. When in ignition, strange buzzing sound comes from the relay Denso 058700-4000 and 2k is shown on tachometer. Please help! Where is the problem?

Flat battery?

Bad battery connection or corroded earth connection?

You trapped a wire when bolting on the cylinder head or manifolds?

If it suddenly breaks, go back to the last thing that you did before it broke and start looking there :)

The battery is fine, the starter is running the engine. I think it's a fault ralay. Can I replace it with the Horn relay?
