Hi all, I have a problem transit minibus, no start sometime, cranks good, fuel pressure valve on rail and HP pump new, sent to ford and told us it's ECU. New ECU fitted and same fault . Injectors new last year , leak off checks out ok. After no start, leave for 5 mins and starts fine.

Hi Ian, can you not see rail pressure etc. in live data? No offence but it looks like the guy will have a new van by Wednesday!

Hi Alan
I had basically the same problem as you with a 2.4 2007 Transit, on first appearance it looked like a faulty ECU but ended up being the plug that connects the ECU. We had to replace the engine loom to cure it, we have also come across this with a Ford Focus. We found the problem by wiggling the ECU connectors when in a non start situation and also noticed that after testing via probing the wires on the ECU it would start.
Regards Ivor

>>> I will try a cam sensor tomorrow <<<

I know its an old fashioned approach but why not test it before replacing it?

Thanks all for your help, I checked cam and crank sensors while in none start mode, scope reading sensors ok, fuel pressure looks good, fitted and coded injectors from a broken transit engine, all seems good, customer needs bus back on the road . Going to get his injectors checked out.

Job came to a halt , injector repair company found injectors blocked again, bus company not going any further at moment due to high mileage .
