the BSI may have been cooked if it wasnt shut down and started up properly agian.

Check the earth strap (-ve lead) which bolts on to the transmition/chassis.
If it was already loose it could have finaly given-in when the battery
was disturbed while replacing.

#35: Re: Never noticed that before Author: Jodiegee, Location: West midlandsPosted: Thu Oct 07, 2010 12:00 pm ---- Well my dad came to look at it while i was at work, and he started it just fine... so i have no idea what was going on when i came to start it earlier on in the day.
Also when i tried to start it and got nothing as i went to lock it, it wouldnt lock so had to lock it manually with the key, and the same again when i tried to open it again...
but as i say its starting fine again now.

Earth strap really worth checking in that case.

where it joins onto the car transmition housing or chassis, and
make sure its bolted-on really tight.

If there is your Imboliser chip may have come out of place so you cant lock or start the car.
