New battery, tries to start...engine light went on, thought it was loose gas cap, tightened it and drove 2 days ,very short distances. Now it won't start. It left me sit at work, so I can't check the codes from home.....when I turn the key .it cranks and cranks but won't catch to start. Anyone have any suggestions?
Have the fault codes read as that will indicate the problem area

probably a security but if you have two keys and both of them dont work go to a parts store that will let you borrow a code reader O reillys etc other than that get the trusty test light out and check power at starter when key is turned make sure the new starter isnt foul in up tap it with a hammer lol

I had a skim module go out in mine in the ignition, and I have a 2001. It's a 100 part, and now it starts fine.

first, though you mentioned no oil leaking, is there oil in the engine?
Next, if engine runs well and is not ticking or tapping, have the codes checked...most larger parts stores do this free. Once you have the stored codes you can look up what system is malfunctioning.
If engine is making any noise at all or there is no oil in it, DO NOT START OR DRIVE IT...make sure whoever did the oil change knows about this now...If someone forgot to put oil in, they may be buying you a new engine!
At this point it may be something simple but can also be very serious.(hope not)
good luck

THEFT system is armed; check the disarm procedure in your Owners Manual.
If this isnt solve it, could be that you need to re-synch your antitheft security module.
