ok...now when i put my key into the ignition..it no longer makes that annoying "beeeeeep" sound....and my blinkers dont turn on...and my parking lights stay on...anyone have any idea what my problem is..and where its located...
thanks everyone for your help...

 

please someone help me..i havent found anything to help me on the search...if someone does find something...please post it ...thanks..

 

Right off-hand it sounds like the CPU needs to be resoldered. It'll be behind the driver's kickpanel next to the fusebox. If I remember, just one 10MM nut is holding it in. Hunt for the CPU fix, either here, or I'm pretty sure Ted might have it on his site: http://www.fc3s-pro.com

 

thank you...i'll. try that as well....i was wondering if it could be my starter going out?? or maybe my relay for the lights??

 

All of those are controlled by the CPU. If the car will start fine, then the starter is OK. A starter has no influence on the beeping you hear when you insert the kay.

 

thanks man..im gonna try that re-soldering thing...i really think this will fix my problem...thanks a lot..

 

also...i check my oil and i smell a lot of fuel...and my car wont start...could it be flooded....................again...??

 

Yup. They're bad about flooding.

 

The turn signal lights and that beep sound are controled by a little black box in the drivers side kick panel behind the plastis. Check this first, this is most likely your problem not the ECU.

 

thanks everyone for your help...i'll check all of it..i've been trying to get my car started for a while now... still nothing...just cranks..pulled the injectors out..cleaned them (half assed cleaned them) ..turns out i can't start the car without the intake on..so i put everything back together..and try it again..and still wont start....(it started before for like 4-5 seconds then it shut off) i was told its because my intake was not attached..(the afm is in the intake box) so i put everything back..and now it floods again...man...

 

I *HAD* pics to do this write-up, but it got lost in the move.

No one has mentioned the parking lights. Odds are you have a dead or dying headlight switch.

Also, the CPU and ECU are NOT THE SAME THING. The ECU controls the engine, and lives under the carpet in the passenger footwell. The CPU controls mostly cosmetic functions (blinkers, horn, beeper, etc.) and lives in the DRIVERS kick panel.

 

Aaron's right. The headlight switch could be failing as well. Something in the back of my mind tells me the running light circuit runs through the CPU too. Been a while since I've had to hunt electrical problems (w00t!)

 

thanks...so i should also check the light switch right....hmm....is it hard or expensive to replace??

 

update: im gonna unflood the motor today....when ichecked the oil...there was a strong smell of fuel..so i have to change the oil aswell...my question is should i change oil first...or unflood engine first???

 

Doesn't matter really. Running an engine with a little fuel in the oil won't hurt it for a short period of time.

 

cool..so unflood it first...and see if it actually runs... by the way...what do you think could be wrong:
my car would start for like 4-5 secs. then die off...would it really be the intake not attached to the motor?

 

Yes. Everything needs to be attached to the engine. The airflow meter at the end of the black snorkel measures how much air is coming in. Without that signal, the engine won't know how to run, therefore it dies.

 

thanks thanks..just making sure...ok..ima go do the things i gotta do..later everyone
