Default Re: help! double wrench -500 symbol on instrument panel

The only way I could stop it was by taking the fuse out. I put the fuse back in and contined to have the problem. Then the car did not want to start. It makes a loud roaring noise in engine area but never tries to turn over or start. Usually i could disconnect the battery for a little bit then it would be fine. Last week I was driving down the highway and the car shut off! It will not start and a double wrench -500 symbol flashes on my instrument panel. I just bought the car a couple of months ago. It was my dream car but quickly became nightmare. Can someone please help as I do not know much about cars but I do know this isnt normal. Thank you for your time and attention in this matter!
I like your terms, roaring noise in engine area. Do you live in Africa? If so - start running.

Joking aside, 'never tries to turn over or start' to me means the engine does not move at all, correct?
If so it may be a simple fix of the RCM.

What makes the roaring noise, we'll skip an angry lion. Starter motor?
Without an accurate description of the problem it is hard to diagnose a problem.
