Why is the starter not working on my MG6?

Why is the starter not working on my MG6?

It is the live switch connection on the starter motor, it is a common problem inherited from the K series. Between the bulkhead and the back of the engine, low down you will see the heavy cable connecting the starter motor to the battery, it is not this one!

When does the warning light come on on a MG6?

The warning light illuminates as a lamp check when the ignition is switched on. If the light illuminates at any other time or fails to extinguish after start up, an airbag restraint system fault has been detected, then an audible warning will be given when the engine is started. (Airbag Fault will appear, MG6 only)

Which is the best forum for MG6 owners?

It can be a little tricky to reconnect as you are working pretty much blind with your arm down the back of the engine so do it in good light when you have a half hour to spare – to be on the safe side. www.mg6register.co.uk – The most popular forum for MG6 owners, and home to the official MG6 forum of the MGCC.

What to do if your MG6 petrol is not calibrated?

If SAS (MG6 petrol only) has a fault, the message centre will display SAS Fault. If SAS is not calibrated, the message screen will display the prompt message SAS Uncalibrated. Seek an MG Authorised Repairer urgently.
