Help I've broken my car :(

[Fantom]

I've just finished relocating the battery to behind the passenger seat. All connected up and I've got power, but turning the ignition on and the fuel pump doesn't prime and obviously the car turns over but will not start. What have a done wrong? What could have broken? Is the car immobilised or something?

Is there a solid red immobilier light?

This earth still on?

Have you knocked the impact switch if it's got one?

 

[Fantom]

There is some fuel cut switch thing I had flapping about the place. I've put it back where it was, is there a way of resetting it or something?

 

[GrahamS]

WHAT EVER YOU DO DON'T PUSH THE BUTTON!!!

No serious, just push the button and it should be okay if you immob is off. Should hear a little click when you do.

Yeah push the switch back in !

Grazo that earth doesn't appear to exist on my car. And I certainly didn't take it off. I removed the original battery earth but left it connected to the chassis. Just checked the impact switch thingy and it looks untouched. So annoying but it must be something. I can't have damaged he ecu can I? All I did was lay it on its side

Ah you guys are the best. Pushed the switch and it fired up beautifully. Just need to tidy up a few things now. Anyone know how to get the ecu out of its stupid cage thing? I can't quite see how it comes out of there.

May be ph2 cars which have the earth then

The ecu cover pulls off upwards. It's either really easy or a complete a hole. If it doesn't come off easily just cut it off carefully.

Yeah cut it off if you can't get it off by pulling, DONT try using a pri-bar inbettween the cover and that or it will break the ecu plugs

Ok great. Then I was just gonna cable tie it down over the gearbox mount.
