Slowxr6t Member 587 Member For: 6y 5m 28d Location: New zealand Posted 15/01/22 09:22 AM Share Posted 15/01/22 09:22 AM So Iv just got engine back in and everything hooked back up, well I think everything hooked up after new ati balancer, atomic flexplate, new HD timing chain kit, resealing up motor and hopefully fixing oil leak on the front sump seal. Long story short been very meticulous and careful with all plugs and hooking everything up and went to start motor and dash lights all come on, turn key and nothing, no click click, no starter motor noise, when I turn key radio goes silent but that's it. Anyone got any ideas? Please Link to comment https://www.fordxr6turbo.com/forum/topic/96575-motor-wont-turn-over/ Share on other sites More sharing options...

Could it be anything to do with zf loom plug connectivity?

Slowxr6t Member 587 Member For: 6y 5m 28d Location: New zealand Posted 16/01/22 08:58 PM Author Share Posted 16/01/22 08:58 PM There's another plug on the side of zf that I have nothing plugged into, is that for diagnostics or something or should I have a plug in that too?

Slowxr6t Member 587 Member For: 6y 5m 28d Location: New zealand Posted 17/01/22 02:21 AM Author Share Posted 17/01/22 02:21 AM My auto electrician worked out that zf gear selector was in slightly the wrong place, dash was saying it was in P for park, but trans wasn't. When we put trans in R the engine started. We adjusted the trans selector arm and she's all good now, yaaa. Battery was too flat as well so charging that up too, jump pack didn't have the juice either, thanks @JETURBO and @Puffwagon. 3 Link to comment https://www.fordxr6turbo.com/forum/topic/96575-motor-wont-turn-over/#findComment-1710113 Share on other sites More sharing options...
