ok i truned my car off and now it will not start back up took it to a meachanic and they cant figure it out, so can u help me out. ? What do you think the problem might be?
do a fuel pump pressure test,to make sure it is getting enough fuel,make sure the plugs is getting a good spark,is the starter turning the motor over fast enough,you could also check FOR a bad sensor.good luck
HI
I would NOT go back to that mechanic... That's there job to figure out whats wrong...
There are 3 things that a motor needs to run..
Air
fuel
spark
it has to not have one or more of those to not run. A simple test should provide that info...
we know its getting air,
is it getting spark at the plugs ( pull a wire off and put a screw driver in the end and hold it near a bolt and have someone crank the motor does it spark.. if so then that's OK..
is it getting fuel.
good luck

There is an immobiliser on these cars from what I understand, if the battery went bad, or disconeccted that could have told the ECU that something was wrong and will not allow the car to start until it is reset.
