So if you turn the key, and you get nothing... Alarm?
The red one is doing this... Put the key in, turn it, dash lights come on, bing bing bing bing, all that... Turn the key, and nothing... No click, no turning of the motor, like the starter is killed... Battery is good, has an optima yellow top... Diagnosis?

Go through the procedures to disarm the alarm, try again.
If still no, jump the solenoid on the starter and see if you get anywhere with that.

Re: So if you turn the key, and you get nothing... Alarm?
I did that, I locked it up, and watched the alarm light flash, and then unlocked the door and tried to start it... Yesterday it started, but not today... I was gunna move it forward a few feet, lol... Guess I better put it in neutral and push, lol...
My silver one would do this shit sometimes, and I'd have to go through this whole procedure of clocking, unlocking, run around the car 6 times, break dance, cart wheel, and han plant, then the car would start... I know on the silver one its the alarm because the power locks dont work, but the pwr lox work on the red one... Wierd...

can we get video of this????????????????????
I sold N2FISN69 his car. I had never had any starting problems until money and keys changed hands. He got in his new car, and nothing. We push started it, and he got it home. After disarming the alarm, it has been fine since.

other than the alarm it could be the neutral safety switch.

They have NSS on a 5speed? I know the autos have them... And how can I remove/disarm the alarm? *I know, search, BLAH!*

Re: So if you turn the key, and you get nothing... Alarm?
Yeah, it sucks when they don't want to disarm...
I remember when mine fucked up... what a day that was.
I had to count to 100, turn around 5 times counter clockwise while saying "baa baa black sheep", get my neighbor to do the truffle shuffle while I ran inside to grab a nintendo controller and type in the Mario "invincibility" code, then sacrifice a small woodland creature to Apollo, the sun god.
that was a crazy day i tell you...

Re: So if you turn the key, and you get nothing... Alarm?
Does the alarm have the engine immobilizer? Maybe for some reason its set to be imobolized even after the alarm is disengaged. Just be careful taking apart the alarm. I tried that the first day I bought my car and it activated and went haywire going off for 10 minutes straight before i just smashered it. Could have disconnected the power to it but hey wheres the fun in that. What alarm is it?

Its alarm!!! Mine did the same stuff when I had it in pieces. If I unhooked my positive battery cable and then hooked it back up my car would start. Try that!!!! If still no then it must be your Hydrosolator..............................lol

Re: So if you turn the key, and you get nothing... Alarm?
Look at all these damn rituals we have to perform to get the Supra gods to let us start our cars, damn it man...
ICE: its the factory alarm...
Soup: cant we just remove these worthless alarms all together? I think that after 15 years, the alarms just get crazy... I wanna take them both out and get aftermarket ones...
