Crank, No Start Basic Symptoms and Diagnostics

I this video I go over 3 possible issues which may cause a no start situation in your Montero also, a bonus tip at the end where I show you a mystery RPM signal connector under the hood which you can use this to see if you have a rpm signal from the PCM during a possible no start condition. I go over : No start no fuel, No start no spark and perhaps you have an old key.

Hi Jim, thank you for the video which has helped me in arriving at a conclusion [ Relay 1 coil open and fuel pump failure nothing happens when power at fuel pump connector], following the process that has been explained. Subscribed!

Mr Jime.. how are you doing bud? hey I am having issues with my Montero in Mexico so I am back here getting retrained.. thanks for the videos. I didn't know you had a video about this issue. Its a very popular problem with our monteros where the engine wont turn, or even try crancking unless you put it on NEUTRAL. Well this has worked fo rme on my Monteros here but now when you cant access the truck and are trying to fix it ove the phone makes it very hard. Thanks again bud

[@jime.angulo4151]

Hola Amigo espero te encuentres bien, If it only cranks when the trans is in neutral, then there seem to be an issue with the transmission range switch. What year is your Montero in Mexico?

[@jrcastaneac]

Thanks for your video. Very informative and glad to see Monti gurus helping out with issues. How do i replace my key transponder? How will i go about this? Mines just started with issue #1 2002 montero limited 3.5 thanks, any feedback will be appreciated.

[@jime.angulo4151]

Thanks! yes, you have to replace the key and get it reprogrammed. Many after market companies do this.

I have a 02 montero sport the fuel pump does not come on when you turn the key, an no spark

[@juanvega802]

I have a 2001 Montero Sport and I replaced fuel pump, fuel filter, sparks and wires and still cranking and sometimes starts right up

[@user-uc6bf5ze3b]

I have a 2000 Montero sport 3.0. It has a little clatter which i suspect is the timing tensioner is weak.

[@jime.angulo4151]

that is very possible

[@station3controlroom820]

thank you very much my montero starts alright but does not ramp up the first few seconds anymore

[@jime.angulo4151]

Check for DTCs

[@TakeUsHomeYeshua]

Hi! My Montero has no crank, battery is perfect. Is it possible that the key battery is dead? If yes, is there a cheap way to replace the battery inside the key? Thank you!!!

[@jime.angulo4151]

what year and model is your Montero? The immobilizer system does not cause a NO CRANK condition. Could be an issue with the starting system make sure the S terminal at the starter has B+ while the key is the crank position.

[@TakeUsHomeYeshua]

2004 Montero Sport.

[@jime.angulo4151]

@@TakeUsHomeYeshua Get a starting system wiring diagram and see if the starter is getting power when you put the key in the crank position.

[@edenbul6140]

In Europe usually those cars are diesel. In USA, gasoline or diesel?

[@jime.angulo4151]

In the US, Gas is more common but diesels are also available

It’s a valve noise ticking, needs to be replaced the valve lifters

[@jime.angulo4151]

It depends, sometimes it just the oil not getting to the top end.

My Pajero io 4G94 model engine runs and stop after 20 minutes. I change fuel pump and spark plugs but still the same.
