My radiator was leaking on my car it then cut out now it will not start. It is not seized and no signs of head gaskiet blowing. Could the on board computer shut the car down? Thanks, Lawrence

If you mean the engine stalled, there are dozens of possible causes for that. You need to provide some test results, additional symptoms and observations, or diagnostic fault codes to know where to tell you to start.

Hi LOZYH123,

Here is a link to an article that features written step by step instructions and pictures explaining how to do the scan yourself, also I have included a link to our YouTube channel with a how to video on code scanning.
