Hi.
Well earlier this week as I was about to make a turn my car died and the problem is that it won't start up anymore. I went out and got a hynes booklet but the book was worthless. The only book they had was the 86-99 book. It didn't even have the info on the check engine codes so any of you guys know what code means what and which plugs to plug in the diagnostic box then let me know. When I try to start the car it doesn't crank... It sounds normal except there isn't a cranking effect to it. I'm thinking the starter but haven't checked it out yet because I have a busy scheldule except for weekends. If anyone's been through something like this let me know. Oh... I'm also thinking the timing belt but like I said haven't taken the time to open and check yet. |

from what you have described 'When I try to start the car it doesn't crank' It is not an ignition problem. It sounds likt the starter is not getting power and hence an electrical problem. The injectors don't fire either unless the enigine is turning, so is the engine turning or not? Like 95sthatch is suggesting, it could be a bad ground.
good luck |
