  • Car is not starting consistently

    OK.. so i get in the car.. push in the clutch.. turn the key.. and NOTHING happens.. no clicking, no flashing, no security lights, no nothing..

    I stop for a second.. turn the key again, and it starts up like normal??

    WTF is up with that??

    anyone else ever have a problem like this??

    thanks
    ~Bill

    Mine has had similar problems here lately, but it doesn't just flat out not start, it actually waits for about a second (which is actually a pretty long delay if you sit and count it...), then it starts. So basically, I put the key in and turn, but have to wait a second before something actually happens. It only happens sometimes though. I guess it's not much help if neither of us know what the problem is, so let me know what you find.
