Default Re: Newby having trouble starting my new 2005 Xfire

Which lights turned on? Sounds very similar to what I recently went through. Could be a bad relay in the RCM. With the RCM shell removed, turn the key to the ON position and check that 2 of the relays stay closed (the fuel relay will close for 2 seconds then open).
If 2 stay closed, the RCM is working as it should. If not, one of the relays is bad. If it needs repair, seek out tighed1 from these forums. Good Luck! (Mine is repaired, but I'm still stuck in park - note that there is an override for it, screwdriver / pen in slot at the back of the gearshift.)
