my 2007 GS suffered from similar problems. It turned out to be one of the plugs that are located in the passenger foot well on the left side. You have to pull the carpet back to expose a plastic cover over 3 plugs. On mine the front plug just fell out !! . Poor design as a passenger entering the car tends to put their foot against the plug cover. I Used some tie wraps to keep the plug and socket together. Drove several thousands miles after this "fix" and never had another problem. Worth looking at. |

Almost certainly an intermittent electrical connector problem. Georgetina is correct. Look at the connecting block at the base of the A pillar. Think about what circuits are likely to have failed when you try the second start. Those are the connectors to go for. Look for loose pins, signs of burning, pushed back pins etc. Systematically check (disconnect, inspect both male & female, reconnect). A pillar, passenger fuse box (& behind it) engine bay fuse box, ECU, boot fuse boxDo all of this with battery disconnected. Don't even bother to fix any non-related faults until this is sorted. NB. ABS & HDC faults are unlikely to stop it starting. HDC indication on cranking suggests low voltage.

Have you had the codes read on a proper reader?

I would certainly refit the Haldex fuse as is does tie in with the high speed can bus system which your immobilizer is in the same loop. Not saying that is the fix tho.

Hi, I have a similar problem after changing the engine. Look for code B10A crash, which is the restraints module in the fuse box behind the glove box. Dealer software to reset it. B10EA is in the fuel tank. The can Bus is disconnected in crash mode. I think it is a short to ground in the Loom somewhwere. |
