Thanks for all the input guys.

I think I may have narrowed it down to the Fuel Pump / some connection there. I am looking for the Fuel Pump Relay, according to the ESM, but can't find it. Any pointers for my Right Hand Drive. How hard is it to get to?

About to go try EC-55 - Learning Positions thing from ESM. Thanks for all input, Timeshock, IMCKAY, and AGrice of course!

So I did the diagnostics in the manual, I can not actually feel a pulse along the fuel line when I switch car to 'On'. I think I am squeezing the right one. I then checked the Relay, and it's getting 12 volts through to that. The checks beyond that, I have no idea how to do really.

Pointers?

Cheers,
Matt.

Can anyone confirm if there is an earth cable on the Primera P12 Petrol that runs to the gearbox? I can see where battery negative terminal joins to the body work, and also to the engine block, but no where else beyond that.

Thanks guys,
Matt.

Matt

I thought i'd just let yu know spent 180 on new crank engine sensors and it appears to have worked.. i've yet to take the car on a very long run but the error codes are gone and it starts on journeys it previously didn't...

Looking at the troubleshooting matrix you're on the right tracks. Might be worth taking the fuel pump fuse out first, crank it a bit, then put it back in before trying it again as if the pressure in the line is already up you might not feel much.

Now enjoying wafty effortless power.
