problem starting

[barneydad]

Can anybody help me. I have been offroading today in my swb 2.7 tdi terrano P Reg. This is my new toy and was first time using it offroad. Was going well until I reversed up a small hill and hit a heap of rocks when coming forward car stopped I thought I had stalled it.
When trying to restart car it was turning over fine but will not start. After several other offroad drivers looked at it in different areas found that it was blowing the main engine fuse so placed wire in and still no start.

Hi welcome to the club, I assume you have the Tdi not the Td, so the only thing I can think of is the NATS is playing up.

Maybe a bad connection made worse with the jolt.
The NATS is Nissan anti theft device and you probably need to reset the system.

Best regards, Rustic

Hi there, sometimes disconnecting the battery over night has been known to help. Got to be worth a go.

I guess really another easy check is to check all the plugs and connectors are all ok.

Is your's the TD or TDi? easy way to tell is the TDi has the vent in the bonnet with the intercooler below.

PS might be better to remove your reg number from your details:thumbs

Thanks for reply. I left battery off all night and car is up and running but as this is my offroading toy it will be no good if it is going to to this every time I use it!!

If it is the NATS how easy is it to solve this by taking out etc

not sure myself. on mine, the deadlock is down by my right foot behind the trim. Two wires going in, not sure if that is Fords equivalent of nats or if its somethign else. Problem is, I dont believe you can just unplug it, but lets see what someone else thinks!
