Goes to move the van yesterday, dead, not surprised really as its been sat a while.
Jumped it, starts no bother, then stops for no reason when ticking over.
Zero electrics, still juice in battery, maybe not enough to start but still just under 12V.
Key won’t even go in, it’s as if one of the battery terminals has been disconnected.
Fuses all seem ok.
New Battery fitted a couple of months ago.
Any ideas ?
thanks, Brian.

My first thought would be to use another battery, jump leads or a battery charger to get enough power in there and try again.
