hey all,
well my xr8 ute suddenly had a problem not running on gas but still ran on full so i was tracing that down (not factory gas) and found that the solanoid at the tank wasn't opening/not getting power any way.....was doing a few things and then all of a sudden it wouldn't start at all and a mate and i thought that it might had been the battery as it was getting a little slugish from starting and stopping and having the key on trying to find the gas problem. so we hooked up some jumper leads and still NOTHING!! when you turn the key on then go to crank the little exclamation mark appears on the dash. now i can get it cranking with a screwdriver bridging the starter but even with the key on it still wouldn't start so i think i don't have ignition either as it was quite fuelly. so would you say that my bcm has had a sudden heart attack?? i tryed leaving the key in the on position for a hr but nothing, i think that was ment to reset the smartlock. any help would be great. trying to get some mates to get hold of a scan tool for me so i can see what the problem is
