Hi,
I had my first breakdown in 7 years of ownership the other day. The car is refusing to start when the clutch is pressed - it just says press the clutch on the info display even though the clutch is pressed. The AA chap got it going by pressing the clutch multiple times and turning the key and it started eventually.
I knew there was a clutch switch down there so bought a new one and fitted it.
However my problem is still the same but I have found if I press the clutch and the brake pedal it fools it into starting up. I'd like to get to the bottom of this and have read the following fault codes P172300 & P172400 both referencing starter lock.
I'm starting to think the problem is the starter motor related but wanted to dip in here for thoughts first?
