SOURCE: Cold weather Car won't start, but fan under hood does

Because ur lights ar eon when u turn the ignition key doesn't necessarily mean the battery has juice. It probably does to do those things, but it probably doesn't have the cranking amps to send to the starter so that it can turn over the engine. But if the battery is good, it means that ur starter is not working properly, because u said that the engine isn't turning ove. Try tapping the starter a bit and c wut happens. Sometimes it works. If unsure, consult with an auto-electrician. This is definelty an elcetrical probelm

SOURCE: 1994 corolla: hard to start

If it is happening more frequently in cold or damp weather it could be a spark issue. Wet or damp weather can effect spark plug wires if there is even minor damage to them (usually occurs durring rain). The other things that come to mind are the fuel pump and lastly the fuel line check ball that is in the fuel tank. If it is leaking then all the fuel in the line will drain back into the tank over night (pressure lost in the fuel line) and this will cause repeated, extended cranking when you first start the car in the morning or after the car has sat for several hours.

Testimonial: "In my case, I strongly suspect it is fuel pump problem. Very helpful."

SOURCE: The car doesn't turn over on the first try and the

I would first get or give it a tune up by replacing plugs, wires, cap, rotor, filter and fuel filter and see if that change your starting. also have the injectors check and clean. if you have a high miles like over 100k, i would recommend have timing belt check and replace if you have not done so. Good idea replacing timing belt every 100k, you don't want it to jump time or break which will leave you stranded.

MY CORSA LITE REFUSES TO START WHEN THE WEATHER IS HOT

There could be several reasons why your Corsa Lite is refusing to start when the weather is hot. Here are some possible causes:
  1. Weak battery: High temperatures can cause the battery to lose its charge quickly, and if the battery is already weak, it may not be able to provide enough power to start the engine.
  2. Faulty starter motor: If the starter motor is faulty, it may struggle to turn the engine over, especially when the engine is hot.
  3. Clogged fuel filter: A clogged fuel filter can prevent fuel from reaching the engine, which can cause starting problems.
  4. Vapor lock: In hot weather, the fuel in the fuel lines can vaporize, causing a vapor lock, which can prevent fuel from reaching the engine.
  5. Ignition problems: If the ignition system is not functioning properly, the engine may not start, especially in hot weather.
To determine the exact cause of the problem, you may want to take your car to a qualified mechanic who can run a diagnostic test and identify the issue. They can then make the necessary repairs to get your car up and running again.

Battery light and brake light come on for no apparent reason. Aren't on after the car sits awhile.

Your problem will be in your alternator, the brake light and charge light coming on at the same time is almost Daihatsu code for the alternator brushes are failing.. Easiest way to determine this is when the two lights come on, leave the car running and pop the hood (don't forget to put the car in park or out of gear with handbrake on) then find yourself a solid bar or stick and give the alternator (rear of engine bay) a solid but not hard tap. If your alternator brushes are failing you will hear the alternator kick in and see your brake/battery lights go out. Don't drive around too much with the two warning lights lit up because you are running on the battery only and your ignition system could cut out at any time when the battery gets too low.

Starting in damp weather 1993 240 wagon, auto/od, 235k miles

perhaps you need a new cap and roter a new spark plug wire set. they don;t like moisture. also check to see if you have any broken or leaking vacuum hoses. the worse case senerio would be that your head gasket is leaking--at cold temps a little antifreeze will enter until everything warms up and it seals shut due to metal expanding. but since you say it's cold weather only--this probably wou;dn't be the case. good luck.
