Thread: car won't start...

Alright here's the deal. Went to start my car this morning with my remote start (avital 5303) and it worked perfectly and about 5 min later the car turned off. Went to start it again and nothing. all of the lights light up but when I go to turn it over it just clicks. Tried jumping it and nothing happened. Is it the starter, plugs and wires, or coils.

well what code is it throwing? thats were we need to start

Sounds like a ground came loose.

If the starter just clicks there usually is a grounding problem, the car could shut off for the same reason as it wouldnt charge the battery.

I'd start there.

Just ordered a OBD ii bluetooth scanner for the torque app. hopefully it's not anything to big. Is there any possibility it could be a fuse or ignition relay? Also I'm in Michigan and it got down to - 27 degrees last night

sounds like a dead starter. what mine did, just a click in the dash, and no crank. try hitting the starter with a hammer while someone holds the key to start. if it cranks over after hitting it, the starter is bad.

google for a local starter / alternator re builder. most of the time they are cheaper then the parts store, and you got a local warranty with it. if they dont have one to exchange for your old one they can rebuild it in like a hour most of the time.
