a few days ago i just went to a car wash and i bought a full service
it include undercar water spray
now my car won't start
when i try to start it , it just keep on trying to start but it won't
so now i am thinking 2 possibility

1. the sparkplug screw up when i wash the car
2. someone try to steal my car and the security system kicks in which disable the ignition

this is only what i am guessing
can someone help me out ?

 

does the car try to turn over at all? try pulling out the spark plugs and turn the ignition. see if they spark.

 

Did you check to see If your Starter wire Is Intact?

 

thanks for the reply i will try to check it tomorrow first thing in the morning
if all fail dunno what should i do . . .

 

[list=1][*]disable alarm system[*]check starter wire[*]check battery connections[*]let us know the results[/list=1]

 

make sure your battery is charge it could have been shorted out. or mabee your starter could be shorted out too... but who knows.

 

i just went to walmart and bought a new batery
put it in and when i start it
it start strong but still it won't run
will check the starter wire tomorrow
by the way where is the starter wire located ?
if everything fail is it possible that because of the GXL alarm system ?
because i heard from my friend that GXL comes with a security system and it will cut out the ignition if someone tries to steal it

and i think i have the security system because everytime i start the car there will be a security light on and it will goes off after i start the car

how do i disable the security system ?
or how can i restore it ?

i am so sorry for the repeated post
have some problem with the connection
: )

 

Not sure about the security system. But the for the starter get under the car on the drivers side by the front tire and look for the starter. Should have a little wire that just like clips onto it. Sometimes it will come off. Does the car turn over or just click?

 

since your car does start up now. make sure your electrical connections arent still wet.
if its not the electrical connections, i would guess mabee a vacume hose could have come off... just make sure everything is in place

 

wat is the meaning of turn over and just click ???
(i'm not joking i really don't understand this terms. . .)
please don't laugh me
; )

 

when you go to start your car.
instead of turning the motor over it makes a clicking sound. click. click. click.
it normally means that your battery is low.

 

When you turn the key does the car turn over? (starter turning over motor) if not check your battary. lead (wire) from battary to starter under car. If it does turn over is your tach. jumping? let me know. I find much enjoyment from washing my own car..it's seem to be part of the whole bonding thing.

 

yup my car did turn over

 

and the tech is jumping too
eventually i look at the spark plug wire and i found both of the lead in wire is giving out spark
but both of the lead out wire doesn't
so is it the spark plug cable or the T1 and T2 box ?

 

Not understanding that statement? Can you be more precise?

 

i took out the spark plug wire that goes on the spark plug
and when i start the car there isn't any spark coming out from it
and usually it does
erm... do you get what i mean ?

 

he means he isnt getting any spark.

 

yup
that's what i mean
so anyone what is the problem ?

 

So you are taking the spark plug wires and the spark plugs putting them to ground and your getting spark Right? (from all 4 plugs while still attached to your coils)

 

If you are getting spark for sure, is it strong (blueish) if so then you may not be getting fuel to the motor. After a car wash i dont know why not.

 

Hes saying hes NOT getting spark.

 

You might want to check the wires below the brake fluid container also. I had one with a broken tab on the connector and it would turn over, but wouldn't start.. although, it would die while driving if it came unconnected then too.

Here is a pic of where the wires are!
