Symptom (when turning the ignition switch to START) |
Likely Cause |
| No Crank, No Nothing (not even dashboard lights) | If the car starts with a boost, then the battery is bad. If not, suspect the ignition switch, the battery cables, fuses, or ground/power distribution. |
| No Crank, just a Faint Click | Bad PNP switch, or Clutch Interlock, or Inhibitor Relay or fuse #20 (AT) or fuse #21 (M/T), both in the Fuse Block. |
| No Crank, but the Starter Clicks or Spins very fast | Bad starter or starter solenoid |
| Cranks But No Start (starter cranks, but the engine does not fire up) | If the red secuirty light is ON during cranking, then this is a NATS problem. Otherwise, bad Camshaft Sensor, or bad ENG CONT1 fuse (in Fusible Link and Fuse Box), or bad/no fuel delivery. |
| Engine Starts, then Dies | Bad MAF, IACV, Cam/Crank sensors, Coils, or Injectors stuck flooding. |
