Car won't start

Posted By: etmateo On: 01-04-2008 @ 07:43:46         Reply | Edit
Drove my car all day yesterday, washed it, then tried to start it last night and it would not turn over. The security light comes on and it immediately starts beeping at me. When I take the key out, all the gauges go from 0 to maximum then back to 0. And my Service engine soon light comes on. I have no idea what to do. Please help!!

Gauges flashing like that can be a bad battery

Replaced the battery and it works fine. No idea how the battery died with no indications. Hopefully there are no underlying problems waiting to ruin my xmas. Thanks for the help

Almost seems like a bad key pellet. Have you tried
your spare key?
