Default 2009 XF S/C Turns off right after turning on.

Does anybody know why the car is turning off right after turning it on? Engine fires up for 1 second and then completey turns off. ive done it 10 times already. its not staying on.
Whats the culprit here ?

Just guessing, but have you checked your battery? Something similar happened to me last time the battery went out in my XF SC.

the battery is charged, but i think a short is draining it. this car had flood damage and i fixed it. replaced the BCU by the passenger kick panel. i think the flood shorted something and its got a constant low drain in the battery.

I had the exact same on a 4.2 XJR once. I had forgotten to replace the oil filler cap, simple as that. Certainly worth checking I reckon.
