ScoDec Posted June 17, 2022 Report Share Posted June 17, 2022 Wondering if somebody might be able to help point me in the right direction of where to start with diagnosing why my Lupo 1.0 wont start. Video here: https://photos.app.goo.gl/X5LgpaS5YSuMULAx6 Sparkplugs have been changed within last few months. Has got enough fuel. The coolant was a little low so I topped that up. I used a scan tool to check and it came up with following: P0404 P0420 It also showed EGR - Not Ready on the scan tool. Wondering if this could be something to do with it. Any advice at all would be much appreciated! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ObjectiveAway Posted June 18, 2022 Report Share Posted June 18, 2022 You have either 1) no fuel 2) no spark 3) no compression. First pull off spark plug wire and check if there is any sparks or not. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mattymdm Posted June 18, 2022 Report Share Posted June 18, 2022 Flat battery? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RobG Posted June 18, 2022 Report Share Posted June 18, 2022 I'd be inclined to agree with Matty, check your battery voltage. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mk2 Posted June 18, 2022 Report Share Posted June 18, 2022 Yeah, looks like battery connections aren't secure or you need a new battery. Should be over 12.3V (empty) or about 12.8V fully charged. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RobG Posted June 19, 2022 Report Share Posted June 19, 2022 Oh yeah, good call. If the voltage is ok, take the leads off the battery and give the terminals a good scrub with a wire brush. A previous car of mine would do similar to yours when trying to crank, was a bad battery contact Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
