I know that I have seen similar problem here but couldn't find it.

Re: No start
 

I don't think the battery in key fob has anything to do with your issue. Sounding more like the starter motor, or low voltage to the starter.

I hope the engine isn't locked up...

Re: No start
 

Jumper guy tested battery at 12 volts
Can hear the starter selonoid kick out but not turn motor over

Re: No start
 

A good battery should have 12.6 volts. Did he load test it for amps? And even with a good battery, you can have a bad connection anywhere in the circuit causing low voltage.

Re: No start
 

Gonna clean posts tomorrow morning
He just used a small meter and connected it to the battery

Good morning
Update
Pulled battery this morning, purchased Aug. 2017, Interstate battery from O'Reilys.
Cleaned posts and cables, both looked good to begin with.
Ground goes from battery to fender and then ???
Placed battery on charger , meter showed 7.5 drop to 5 after hour.
Taking it to store for them to test
Thanks again for all y6our help

Re: No start
 

Battery tested out as good as new. They put it on some bench tester that slide it into a drawer, readout showed everything that is posted on the top. Perfect shape.
Did replace the two batteries in the key flob, small cost.
Putting battery back in now then run down the ground cable from the fender condition

Re: No start
 

:) For the umpteenth time, the FOB batteries have NOTHING to do with the car starting, or not!!!! :)

Re: No start
 

I know that it didn't seem logical that the key flob batteries would have anything to do with no start.
The guy that first came to give me a jump claimed to have seen this problem fixed with the new batteries, something about having to complete the circuit in the anti-theft.
Sounded good to me and was cheap at $7 to try.
Gonna do the extra ground cable mentioned in another post then if needed do the CPS replacement.
Thanks all

Re: No start
 

Just replaced the RCM recommended by Greg , this one also has had the DJ magic done to it.
Still no start.
I am at my wits end.

Re: No start
 

You didn't watch Greg's video of starting the car with no batteries in the fob? ;)

Right now I'm wondering if the car would start with a boost jumper on it.. 13+ volts.. Vickie in Texas has one basically playing the same game and can only get it started going that route.. not too good for a run to star bucks..

Re: No start
 

Did you ever check for a faulty starter?

Re: No start
 

I thought that Greg's video was to show that key flob batteries have nothing to do with starting.
The roadside assist guy tried using two of those jumper boxes they have to no good, he then did try using jumper cables also no good.
Onehundred80....how do I check starter??? pull it????
Thanks to all again

Re: No start
 

My car has just been sitting in the garage since 2015. It wouldn't start and it wasn't getting an engine speed signal so i figured it was the Crank sensor. I replaced it and unfortunately it didn't fix it.The car barely has any gas in it. I figured that may have been the problem earlier and put a couple of gallons in it but it didn't start. It just cranks. Even though it doesn't have much gas, whats in there is without a doubt bad. There lies another issue due to the location of the gas tank. Any suggestions will be much appreciated. I've fallen in love with my car again and I'm tired of walking by it everyday and not being able to drive it.

You can lead a horse to water, but you can't make him drink!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Re: No start
 

No codes showing up with a reader? Also check fuse #11 .. coil packs..

Also.. just a thought..disconnect fuel line after the pump and run the tank dry.. fill with fresh 2 gallons .

Re: No start
 

Thanks I'll try that. Wish me luck!
