My rover had been running fine - had taken a couple 2 hour trips with it recently, but I went out to start it last night to run errands and it would not start. Things lit up as they usually do, but push button start did not work - would not turn over. It seems electrical to me - like it is locking up - as I have had no problems starting it leading up to last night. Any trouble shooting/guidance/assistance would be most appreciated.

thank you!!

First thing is to check the battery voltage. Do the interior lights or dashboard flicker while pressing the button?

 

Thank you - appreciate your response. I will check the voltage of the battery and I'll also check how old the battery is.

did you figure out the problem? I'm having the same problem with mine

If you have one, use a voltage meter to see if the battery has a full charge. Land Rovers are very dependent on a strong battery. It may need a jump to get started. If that is the case you can have it checked but most likely time for a new one. You may also just try cleaning the terminals. They sometimes get corroded.

 

It was deemed that I needed a new battery. I installed it and problem is resolved.
