SAme problem
Hi did you resolved your problem , I have the same one. It's look like it is related to Key fob (the passive transponder in the key). I have a new alarm module (programmed by dealer) , a new starter and new ignition key. The last thing I have , it is a defective key fob, my only hope, because the dealer will charge 300$ for a new key. What about your situation ?

Did you pull the codes? It'll give you a great place to start troubleshooting.

I suggest youi describe exactly what you hear
happening as you turn the ignition to the start position. Do you hear a click as the starter solenoid engages? And rotational sound of the engine turning but just not starting? Any prior history especially recent maintenance?
Also is the ignition switch original? Is the problem more common with a hot engine or a cold one? You say the battery is good, what voltage at rest is showing? |
