Stopping A Renault Diesel Engine Firing Up

No. As long as it's not a common rail, you need to locate the engine stop solenoid and disconnect the wire. If it's common rail, merely pulling the plug on the crankshaft or camshaft sensor will do the job.

Year and model? I'd suggest that the engine will still start, but the ecu will log fault codes and prolly turn on the emissions or management light.

IIWY I'd just squirt some oil into the turbine bearing housing (before you assemble the supply pipe) and just start as normal - oil will be pumped to the bearing in seconds.

Julian.

Probably be just as easy to put a wire to the starter solenoid wire and spin it over with the ignition switched off.

Camshaft sensor doesn't always work (specifically on Ivecos)

I disconnected the stop solenoid wire and turned it over until the oil flowed, then reconnected.

Started first time and the management light is now on! Still, it works. any Mitsubishi specialists around in the Portsmouth area?

Possibly:

Reset the reminder by the info button on the dashboard. a, Ignition off, push info button several times until the service indicator comes on, b. Push the button until the spanner begins to blink c. Push once again short, the text CLEAR will show.
