Thats a BIG only problem. Did you ever hear it run?? Do you have the correct key? I would have a shop look at it, maybe the engines fried ,and that why you dont buy cars at an auction unless you know what you are doing.

Hi, the airbag flashing light on your car is telling there is a problem. On some vehicles, the light is flashing a two digit code. Your vehicle will require a scan tool for the proper diagnosis (and not the one at Auto Zone---it needs to be airbag system specific, like a good body shop or the dealer). Here's a site that will explain everything you need to know about airbag lights and resetting the system. Once you know the code, you can most likely repair it yourself. There are fairly easy procedures that most people are capable of repairing.
Airbagsolutions.com has the fault code charts to tell you what is wrong! Although it's a pay site ($14.95/day), it's a lot cheaper than going to the dealer.

sounds like the button has shorted out,, pop it out and jumper the 2 wires that go to it, if the trunk opens replace the button, if not,, your getting voltage feedback to the button and it will eventually burn out

Hello and welcome to FixYa!

You definitely have a faulty trunk actuator. The trunk actuator controls the lock and unlocking movement. If it's faulty it won't work, you may just here a noise on the button but a faulty actuator won't open the trunk. I strongly suggest that you have it replaced to resolve the problem.

Hope this helps and thank you for using FixYa! Have a good one!

SOURCE: 2009 HHR won't start. Battery is good.

Is the security light on or blinking?If not then do you have power to the starter.You can check this with a test light.You should have power when you turn the key to start.The test light should light up.Should be the small wire.I believe it is purple in color.If the security light is on then you will have to get the codes to see what is causing the no start.Hope this helps.Good luck.
