ghibli diesel non start ( complicated )

[bembo449]

not a chance of that pal , its not actually been driven since unfortunately , its now all coded up , stil refused to start until they updated the software and its still only running on 4 pots , i get it back on wednesday morning , will carry out a compression test on cylinders 1 & 2 , im going to be very upset if it shows a lack of compression as i had the car running smoothly before , otherwise i wouldnt have carried on with the recommisioning

It could just be coked up and will clear after a few heat cycles

another update , using node lights , there is no power getting to injectors 1 thru 3 , 4,5,6 all flash strongly when the car is running but nothing on the first three cylinders , i guess the next step is to test the wiring harness

tested wiring harness , all seems to be in order , did continuity and power probe to test it , running out of ideas . . . . .

ive managed to source a pin out diagram for my car , is the method i used above the best / most effective of testing the harness ??

Hope you get it sorted chap!

I'm just shocked that a Ghibli (albeit a III) diesel is 'a thing'. I mean, diesel. Maserati.
