have mothballed our 1997 pug 306, has always started on the button, ( usually run it weekly) left for about four weeks and tried to start it,management light is flashing and both red and green 'code lights are on. so doesn't start.
I had the battery constantly connected to a trickle charge and batt is brand new turns over great just doesn't fire. trying to keep it in running condition for or granddaughter who will be driving next year!
Have disconnected batt for a few days so hopefully it will reset ECU?
any other ideas?

disconnect the battery both leads and touch them together to totally discharge the system

do u have a code reader incase they come back on afterwards

Thanks Lee, I just knew you would be the first one to bounce!!!! No I don't have a reader, Will give that a go tomorrow

u should get one, if u wanna borrow mine just holla mate

Cheers Lee will do, no rush intend to keep it covered etc but need to run it regularly I have sorned it no mot, but it always flew through prob is with a 1.8 auto and a 17 year old female might be ott on the insurance!!

oh yes the insurance on a 1.8 will be killer for a 17 year old, is she doing a full test or auto only

prob a full test

It being an auto will help her insurance though..... not a lot , just a little!

And that sounds like possibly an immobiliser problem....

yeh what I thought. there is a button on side of stem you have to press to activate/deactivate will give that a try

well,touched both leads together, but the light is still flashing and red/green lights on, turns over a treat so must be a prob with imobiliser .not really had time to delve deeper,shame great little motor still only 89 thou from new (1996) always started on the button. it is now propped up with a trickle charger, will get a proper look later. pigging pug leccies!!
