Fuel Cut-off switch? need help please!

[wickywills]

Hi all,

I've recently been involved in accident (when i say recent, i mean 2 hours ago!), everybody is fine - minimal damage, only problem, i can't seem to get the engine started! I've had the car towed back home (what a rip-off that was!!), but i cant get into work without it!

I've been told that if i cant start the engine after an accident, then it would normally be some sort of "Fuel Cut-off unit" that i need to reset, but the engineer who came out to tow my car couldn't find it, and i don't know where to start. Does anyone here know where the Fuel Cut-off unit is located on a Seat Leon Tdi 110? It would save me the cost of going to a garage if someone here helps me!

any help GREATLY appreciated!

cheers
James

blimey goble, your quick off the mark!

I assume though that it is not something an amature like me will be able to fix from home though??

what if you pull the fuse for the Airbags? I wonder if it can't communicate the DTC to the ECU it might not do anything
