First, replace bulbs and then check brake light switch, which is located near the top of the brake pedal. Use a voltimeter or test light to verify that there's voltage at the switch connector. It's not bad idea to replace brake light switch. Also make sure the brake pedal is correctly adjusted.
My third row seat was stuck in a tilted back location. It would have been OK if I had the moon roof option. I took your advice; lowered it down into the well and stomped on it a few times. When I put the seat back up, it was no longer in the tilted back position. Thanks.
Hello, First thing to check, see if bolts that hold the starter in place are not lose or missing. If they are in place and tight then it's problem with the Bendix drive of the starter itself. You will need to remove the starter and also check the teeth of the fly-wheel as well.
If the teeth of the gears are good, take the starter to be tested at Autozone for free, be sure to rule the other items out first before making the trip.
The only thing I can recommend in a no start situation is to check the parts that are common in this case. the crankshaft sensor located on top side of transmission under the exhaust pipe. be sure the wires were not damaged during strut change and/or are connected. Also check the camshaft sensor wires as well. Located on front of the engine. the other is if you have an in distributer coil you need to check for spark at one of the plugs. pull one out and ground it to the frame. have a helper turn car over and see if it sparks. if not change the coil and the only place I found to get one was eBay. don't fall for a distributer change if it is just the coil. the things you need to fire off an engine is air, fuel and spark. most common is no spark. those are the only three items to check for ignition since I don't feel it is a bad computer.
It may be that water/moisture has gotten in behind the door panels...do you notice that it worsens in damp(er) weather? The car unlocks by itself if you leave the key in the ignition and you try and lock the doors.
Or somebody has the same coded fob (unlikely).
You might want to reprogram the remotes if you determine that the area behind the door panels is dry and there are no corroded wires, etc.
