When the dashboard gear lights are flashing, the car wont start. On my car this problem goes with the automatic selector lever lock light that stays off. This light is situated between the park and reverse light. By applying the footbrake this light should go off, instead it stay off and the diesel pump is not pumping. The car is swinging but not starting. can anybody help?

Hi there, on my car the fuel pump was not running. My technician had found water under my computer box and all the relays burnt. Even the fuel relay. Try and open your computer box and check all the relays under the box.
