Hi.
I have a C3 in the garage (been there for ages now). It developed an intermittent fault wher sometimes it wouldn't start and sometimes it would. It became a permanent non-starter eventually. I cleaned the connectors etc in the ecu with electrical spray and it started. That lasted a few weeks then became permanent non-starter. Nothing works.
I knew when it would start as the fuel pump could be heard priming up but no sounds at all now. Have tried to check continuity etc in wiring from fuel pump (which is new incidentally) to bsi and seems to be no probelems. All fuses seem intact.
It's a 53 plate with 34000 miles and could be a good wee car but scrappies only offer £350 max.
Cheers
Eddie

What engine size & fuel type are we talking about here ?
Im amazed that you got continuity on the wiring between the fuel pump & BSI because the fuel pump wiring doesent go to the BSI it goes to the under bonnet fusebox.
So the problem appers to be the fuel pump not working ? when you say nothing works do you mean nothing at all ? no starter motor or dash lights ?
