If the headlights dim noticeably or
go out when you try to start the
engine, either the battery is
discharged or the connections are
corroded. Check the condition of the
battery and terminal connections
(see
page
). You can then try
jump starting the vehicle from a
booster battery (see
page
).
In this case, the starter motor’s
speed sounds normal, or even faster
than normal, when you press the
ENGINE START button, but the
engine does not run.
There may be an electrical
problem, such as no power to the
fuel pump. Check all the fuses
(see
page
).
Are you using a properly coded
key? An improperly coded key will
cause the immobilizer system
indicator in the instrument panel
to blink rapidly (see
page
).
Are you using the proper starting
procedure? Refer to
on
page
.
Do you have fuel? Check the fuel
gauge; the low fuel indicator may
not be working.
If you find nothing wrong, you will
need a qualified mechanic to find the
problem. See
on
page
.
