Diagnose & fix electrical fault on Vauxhall Movano (per hour)

£80

Burton, Dorset

19th Dec 2025

QUOTES PRICED PER HOUR (NOT FOR COMPLETE JOB) Symptoms: Van wont start Injection fault light Stop light Service light Engine light Upon fiddling with wires, the van started with some easy start on the 6th try (I can show you where these wires are). What we have tried: Changing fuel pressure sensor Fuel filter Checked fuel pump pressure on diagnostics (by disconecting and reconnecting the sensor) leading us to belive that it is not the high pressure fuel pump Checked for accelaration issues (confirming not the turbo) Other parts changed: Clutch Timing belt ECU Camshaft sensor Dog Bone Bolt and bracket Glow plugs __________ This is a diagnostics job to verify which wires are fualty and will take a good electrical mechanic. Once diagnosed I need it to be repaired and a new quote. Please only quote if you are confident with electrical mechanics. Based in Fairmile, Christchurch (van is not running), so will need the mechanic to be mobile or I will organise recovery to your garage (please note this is a high top van - 5.5 meters long and 2.3 meters wide). I will only organise the van to be moved if you are confident on repairing the van (not just diagnostics). Thanks for reading and hopefully you can help get our motorhome back on the road!
