Car cut out a few times while driving, all ways managed to get it to go until it cut out and wouldn't start again. It will wind over and over but not fire. Upon checking a few things, I have discovered I do not have power to 6 fuses in fuse box when ignition is on.

Hi,

First, I have to let you know this vehicle isn't offered in the US, but I will try my best to help.

The fuses you are finding with no power likely receive power from a different, higher amperage fuse located under the hood.

To start, check those fuses and see if there are any that have failed. Also, can you let me know what the six fuses with no power are for? Also, check for any evidence of damage or overheating on wiring near or around the fuse boxes.

Let me know.

The fuses that are receiving no power are for starter coil, auto box control unit, engine management actuators and switching and protection unit.

Hi,

That certainly explains why it isn't running. Are you able to get your hands on a power distribution wiring schematic for this vehicle? Normally, I would have what is needed, but because this vehicle isn't offered in the US, I don't have one.

If you can find one, locate the fuses that have no power. Next, work backward to see where power comes from. Chances are there will be a heavier gauge fuse prior to the affected ones that has failed.

Let me know.
