Mitsubishi 2005 Outlander will not start.

The car started and then stopped. Car cranks but will not start. Connected an ODBii scanner but it cannot communicate with the ECU. When the ignition key is turned to ON the MIL lamp does not illuminate but the other lamps such as SRS do. The fuel pump works when 12V battery power is connected. Checked the fuel pump relays when the ignition key is turned to ON. The first relay engages and supplies battery power to the second relay but the second relay does not engage. Could be the ECU is not making the connection to ground. Checked the fuses and are OK. Checked the resistances on the ECU harness and all are within spec. Other than replace the ECU do you have any suggestions?

This is a bad PCM. Try to disconnect the security system first and if it still does not start then it is the PCM.

SOURCE: 2007 Jeep Wrangler Unlimited Crank-No Start. Replaced FP.

Hey Tim take a look at this, will this help ?
SUBJECT:
No Engine Crank Or No Engine Start Due To Electronic Lockup Of The WCM / SKREEM
OVERVIEW:
This bulletin involves the replacement of the Wireless Control Module (WCM), and if
equipped, the replacement of the Electric Steering Column Lock (ELV). The WCM is also
referred to as the Sentry Key Remote Entry Module (SKREEM).
MODELS:
2007
SYMPTOM/CONDITION:
The customer will experience a no engine crank AND a no engine start condition. Also, the
remote keyless entry (RKE) system will not operate. This condition may be due to an
electrostatic discharge (ESD) from the ignition key into the Wireless Control Module
(WCM), causing the WCM to electronically lockup. This condition may occur more
frequently in dry and/or cold weather conditions where a sufficient electrostatic charge is
more easily produced. This condition is corrected by the replacement of the WCM
DIAGNOSIS:
1. With the condition present (i.e. the vehicle in the no crank / no start condition), connect
the StarSCAN® scan tool to the vehicle.
2. Turn the ignition switch to the “ON” position, and power up the StarSCAN®.
3. If the WCM is electronically locked up, the StarSCAN® will display the WCM as being
“off bus”.
4. If the no crank / no start condition is present, and the WCM is “off bus”, then reset the
WCM by temporarily removing the IOD fuse (with the key out of the ignition switch),
wait for 10 seconds and then reinstall the IOD fuse.
5. With the IOD fuse reset having been performed, verify that the vehicle will now crank,
start, and run.
6. If the condition is temporarily corrected by performing the above steps, and if the part
number of the WCM is earlier than the part number of the WCM listed in the part
reference table in the Service Bulletin Parts Required Section below, then perform the
Repair Procedure.

SOURCE: where is the starter relay on a 94 Honda Accord

Yes, it sounds like your solenoid is bad and staying engaged against the flywheel, you could do an amperage draw and a voltage drop test to find out for sure, but you will need an DVOM and a amp clamp. Or you could take it into an auto parts store and they will test it for free. Hope this helps.

SOURCE: Intermittent fuel pump engagement when turning key - 2001 Taurus

try cleaning the connector that goes to the fuel pump, sometimes they corrode on inside. If that does not fix, test the wires feeding fuel pump with a multi meter until the condition shows itself again, if voltage drops to zero or very low then wiring problem, if voltage is unchanged with problem and fuel pump is not working and connectors are all clean, try replacement of fuel pump.

2006 Mitsubishi Outlander : why won't it start , AFTER Crank Sensor replaced?

Why did you replace the sensor in the first place is the first question. If it already didn't start then the crank sensor was not the problem, crank sensor faults can be logged for other reasons. If it did start put the old one back in and try again.

Do i need to plug in my mitsubishi outlander in cold weather

if the engine has provision for coolant and oil heating for cold weather then it would be very advisable to use it
It stops slow oil circulation from very heavy oil and stops chances of the coolant freezing and cracking the block and heads .

My Mitsubishi outlander 2.4 mivec 2005 model will not start after replacing head gasket.

Have you checked there is no water in the oil which could mean the head was not torqued properly.? If not perhaps an air suck probelem or a wiring problem.or check spark and fuel.

I have a 2005 mitsubishi outlander. It wont start after I ran out of gas. I bought a new battery but the car still wont start

It's still out of gas until the lines are purged of air. The fuel pump has to run awhile to build up pressure. Keep cranking. If you can take the small gauge wire off the starter easily,all you have to do is turn the key to the start position and hold it there for a while. Listen for the fuel pump. When it slows down or stops then reconnect the wire and it should start.

Codes po 223 po 123

PO 123 Throttle Position Sensor Circuit High Input
PO 223 Throttle Position Sensor Circuit High Input

Probably two different switches on the sensor. I'd say get a new Throttle position sensor. Try starting it with light pressure on the gas pedal, if it satrts it's definetly the TPS.

I have a 2005 mitsubishi outlander. up until three days ago, it was running fine. i went out to start it one morning and it will not start. it cranks, but will not "fire". i checked the fuses...

06outlander3yy9.jpg

I drive a Mits Outlander 2005 4WD Auto-transmission (see image).
This morning, I put it in D-Drive but it didnt move.
R-Reverse moves but after a chug sound.

Called a mech over the phone, he says something about a "fibre" in the tranny that need to be replaced.

Thinking back, I changed the timing-belt when it snapped last Wednesday.

Then last Saturday, while filling the AC gas, another mech checked and noticed that the front shafts had damaged plastic covers that were replaced. But ATF fluid dripped from the tranny thru the removed shafts.

While topping the ATF, this fluid spilled on some wire harness and wire-sockets on the tranny next to the dip-stick opening.

This morning, when the D-Drive failed to move the car, I noticed an extra dull glow of the green light on N-Neutral on the dash-board indicator when the stick is in the D-Drive position.
No Check-Engine light came up.

Can this spilled ATF on these cable cause the tranny to fail like this?

What can I do to correct it?

Many thanks.

Tony.

My 2005 Outlander won't start. It turns over, but

The first step you have to take is to determine if you have an ignition or fuel problem. You must do this to know which direction in testing to go. After you find out which problem you have check your fuses and fuse links with a test light to make sure all circuits are working from that point. After that depending on your confidence in dianognostics and experience in auto repairs you may want to take the car to a shop or let us know the results that you get from the checks then we can guide you on which tests to run next.

2003 Mitsubishi Outlander died and won't start back up

If it does turn over but won't start, check for fuel and spark, if not spark then check to see if the crank sensor is cover with dirt.....
