2002 S430 EIS locked my key and key won't turn but I lifted the little trap door on top of the EIS that has the key stuck and was able to turn the key but now nothing still happened so I was checking the starter relay and I took off the plastic cover and when I was putting it back on the motor started turning but it won't start . So with my key turned all the way to starting possition by manipulating the EIS lock and manuelly mAking the starter relay connection my car is turning but it's obviously being commanded not to Start so any ideas on how to re

I had same problem w/ my '88 Ram50. Turned out to be bad contacts on the battery cables. Temp fix and test was to put a little screw between the post and the end connector. Didn't have a problem then, so I replaced the cables.

Can be a Junk Relay, access is limited, but giving the Starter a "crack" with a mallet, often cures the problem temporarily. But check the Battery terminals, and Cable to the Starter solenoid ,first for tightness and security.
