    Totally useless answer. How did this get any votes? What if every time someone asked a question, they were directed to a book to find it. If they wanted to do that they would have gone and gotten it. They didnt, they came on here to ask the so called experts. worthless.

SOURCE: location speed sensor pt cruiser 03 touring car do

It sounds like the module is in limp mode. The speed sensor is most likely the cause, but it can be some other things as well. A scan will give a code stating the problem area.

The speed sensors are on the side of the trasmission that faces the front of the vehicle. There are 2 of them, and they are the same sensor. One is an input speed sensor located closest to the engine, the other is the output speed sensor.

2002 Pt Cruiser No Start! Alarm?

This car is 15 years old. Personally, I have never heard of a vehicle that would do that. Try to find another vehicle that is newer. Nobody wants to get another vehicle, but it would be better than putting up with this problem.

Have a 2005 PT Cruiser, automatic transmission that will not start. Key turns and all lights and accesaries come on. No clicking, and does not crank, Battery has good voltage. This happened a couple of...

My thought is the neutral safety switch is failing., or the gear selector linkage is out of adjustment-im not familiar with pt cruiser drivetrains, but the neutral safety switch allows a vehicle to start in only park, or neutral. Switch is located somewhere on the trans housing. Loose gear selector linkage can also be the culprit. My advice is to purchase a haynes, or chiltons repair manual specific to your cruiser's model year and follow the troubleshooting sequence for each. this will save you a lot of cash-
