Yeah I bet it's the alarm/ignition kill!

I figured this one out months ago cause I'm cheap and I ain't calling no tow truck until I screw around with the car for an hour or so hahaha!

Lock, Unlock, Lock, Unlock, Open Door, Close Door, Lock, Unlock, Open Door, Start Car.

Up, Up, Down, Down, A, B, A, B, Select, Start.

Actually, it's

^ ^ V V < > < > B A SELECT start

You need to reset - no 30 lives for you

Maybe the ECU fuse blew (fuel box near the driver's side)

 

[ZenProtege]

if the check engine light comes on with key on engine off the ecu is working, she said her dashlights were working which makes that unlikely. If the ecu fuse was blown I imagine it will still turn over but not crank but I've never tried it so i don't know. This situation reminds me why a DVOM never leaves my car.

The alarm may be the culprit but my guess is the battery. I know the starter soleniod requires much less voltage to engage than the starter, and hearing that the soleniod was clicking leads me to believe the battery didn't have enough juice to spin the starter motor but engage the soleniod. The soleniod and starter are controlledby the same circuit aren't they? If they are then I don't see how the alarm would let one work and not the other

 

[peepsalot]

I had my ECU fuse blow once, and I don't remember it even clicking when I tried to start it. The coolant temp guage was pegged to the top(falsely) when I tried to start it.

If the battery has enough juice for the solenoid, but not the starter, then one way to tell I think would be to turn on your headlights and if they dim pretty much all the way when you turn the key then it's probably the battery. If they are not dimming too much when you try to start, then maytbe it is your starter or some other electrical problem like alarm that people have mentioned. (shrug)

The alarm unit has its own fuse my car would start and that was the reason. I replaced the fuse and the car started right up. Hope this helps Im not very car savy. The car should start if bypass the wiring harness just unplug the alarm part and just plug that end into the ignition if the car starts its the alarm.

was it the Fuse or the F-Ing alarm...

 

[thejoker0409]

was it the Fuse or the F-Ing alarm...

Its yellow and says "20" on it

Nevermind read your post wrong sorry

 

[SpicyMSP]

Well they jumpstarted the car and it started fine. Dont know if it will hold the charge yet.. but I will find out in due time. In addition.. I now have a howling noise coming from the engine bay.. sounds like a pressure leak of some kind. Is most pronounced when I accelerate (under boost), and after the turkey.
Lesson learned...never let your boyfriend borrow your car.

thanks for the help guys

 

[Brian MP5T]

it was your fat cock.

FAT COCK!

 

[hukster00]

i had it happen to me few times, it was eazly fixed with replacing the battery
