Didn't know this forum existed until I had to get on the Google when my defender wouldn't start this morning. The engine is turning over. Battery is strong. I can hear the fuel pump running every time I cycle the key. Haven't checked for spark yet because be hard to do by yourself. I noticed my digital and analog rpm gauges showing no rpms as the engine is turning. Any ideas? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Remove both plugs and check to see if they are wet and smell like gasoline if yes replace plugs. Stand on the brake pedal when cranking the engine just in case, but the starter shouldn't engage if this signal was missing. Check the fuses f5 and f6 in the fuse box next to the battery. Start by checking the fuses first and wiggle the connectionsto see if any are loose? Good luck.🤔 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Believe I've narrowed it down to the Crankshaft position sensor being bad. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Was the culprit. Ever have a no start where it's not showing rpm that's it. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
