2001 A6 2.7T No crank, please help
 

Hey all,

Need some help please.


Last week my car decided it didn't want to start. I had driven it only 3 hours prior, so it should have been fine.

It will not crank now. I can hear what i think is the fuel pump, when i turn the key.

I checked all the fuses & relays, they are good.

I checked the clutch switch on the pedal. Its working normal.

I am getting the normal lights on the dash.

I am not getting any CEL codes.

I did, however just replace the battery, and it worked fine for about 12 hours.

I checked all the connections and when i check the voltage to ground I am getting 12.6 V.

From the reading i have done on similar issues, they found that the Crank position sensor had to be replaced. Though they had noted that they had CEL codes.

I appreciate any insight you guys might have.

thanks.

Ok, just to update.. I have checked the ground cable for the battery (as best i can, it seems to run back behind the ECU) . I cleaned the battery posts and cables (again) to ensure the best connection, but still not getting anything.

any thoughts?
