As it turned out though, it was not the fix for my no start problem. Looks like it was a mal-adjusted RFID antenna ring. But before I start doing a "happy dance" I'll have to see if my no start condition returns. ( BEING 75 I HOPE I NEVER HAVE TO GO THRU REMOVING THE LOWER AND UPPER DASH! IT BEAT ME UP PRETTY GOOD TRYING TO BE A CONTORTIONIST GETTING TO ALL THE SCREWS AND DEALING WITH BRITTLE PLASTIC PARTS! )
@ 1249 ESTime: I knew it was too soon to do that "happy dance!" Used car several times yesterday and all morning morning today, start and stop errands, with no problems! Came home a few minutes ago and was going to move cars around in driveway and wouldn't you just know that the "damn" car did same symptoms of 3 times no start and 4th time wouldn't do anything! Just "knew" it was the RFID antenna being mis-aligned! How could it be the faulty "SKREEM" that is making me scream! Seems it would be bad all the time and not just sometimes. Now I have to "humble" myself to my neighbors, who have been watching my efforts, to help me push it away from the street. Tell me "Pizzaguy" the error of my ways! LoL
Up date @ 1:15 Today Removed battery cable, as suggested, and replaced after 30 seconds. The car started right up. MSS said if it did not start it would definitley be a bad SKREEM. So where do I go from here? Maybe a bad RFID antenna ring?
