Is your mass airflow sensor hooked up?

 

that wouldnt keep it from starting

Does the cel come up when you have it in the on position? If it does then it sounds like their may be a short some where. If you cut/spliced any wires anywhere check them out. Good place it start is if you put a new hed unit in the car. Also try resetting the car by removing the neg batt terminal for a few min. When ever you install a new part you should always reset the ecu. I would say maybe it was the instlation but thats a very simple install and its hard to make a mistake.

 

Ok.. it could either be the solonoid or the starter. When you try and start it do you hear a little click? Or no click? If its no click then its your solonoid..if you do hear a click then its the starter

 

I agree with Sebba but let's make sure your battery is charged first okay...?

 

I agree with Sebba but let's make sure your battery is charged first okay...? Sometimes batteries will power your radio and other electronics but not have enough charge to start the vehicle.

 

I dissagree. If it did not have enough power then the solonoid would click very rapidly.

 

My car won't start either..it was fine 2 days ago..but then it rained..and it was just sitting in my driveway all day...the next day it doesn't start..my radio and electronics work fine. My engine even begins to start but then just stops.

 

spark wires/plugs

 

maby..but the car like begins to start...but then stops..so i don't think its my spark plugs..because wouldn't the engine not start at all?
