AMR67 Posted July 13, 2015 Share Posted July 13, 2015 Could be a fault in the key that's not turning the engine immobiliser off. Get your key checked out first before committing to anything else. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
carosio Posted July 13, 2015 Share Posted July 13, 2015 Cam belt may have snapped I think it's a chain on Corsa. Engine would still try to turn even if snapped. ---------- Post added 13-07-2015 at 10:33 ---------- Could be a fault in the key that's not turning the engine immobiliser off. Get your key checked out first before committing to anything else. Does the immobiliser shut power off to the starter motor? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
*Wallace* Posted July 13, 2015 Share Posted July 13, 2015 No I don't think it does,if Imobiliser is on engine will turn but not start. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sjr1988 Posted July 13, 2015 Author Share Posted July 13, 2015 it's very strange, i started it about 3-4 mins before parking up to nip into sainsburys and it worked fine. I was all confused when it wasnt turning Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sorry I misread the OP, I thought the engine was turning over but not firing. Sounds like the starters gone, or it my be stuck. Give it a tap with a hammer, it may release it.
