Van died suddenly...
Posted: Fri Jul 09, 2021 3:53 am
Driving home today, raining, but not torrential and no big puddles. Turn onto my street and the van dies. No dash warning lights but the dash illumination lights (and I assume headlights) stayed on. Turned the key to try to start it and nothing. No dash lights. No click. But still the dash illumination lights.
I opened up the engine bay and checked for a loose battery connection, loose IP solenoid connection. I couldn't see anything out of place.
As it was raining I got back in the driver's seat to think...and 30 seconds later the dash warning lights all came on (I'd left the key in the "on" position). Turned the key and it started right up and I drove the rest of the way home.
So, hive mind, what do you think?
