First of all make sure all your battery connections are Clean and Tight. If they are and all your dash lights come on and its not starting But its cranking over Your anti theft alarm may have gotten activated. You may have to leave your Key in the On position for 20 minutes to reset the alarm. Not cranking just in the on position, Now if its not Cranking and your hearing a clicking sound it may be your starter. I have sometimes tapped on the stater with a deadblow hammer and had someone crank it over Making sure your in park foot on brake and being EXTREMLY Carefull that you are not going to run someone over. If that don't get you going Get back to me we can do some more trouble shooting. Get that thing going for you. Thanks, Bear001

SOURCE: clicking noise when trying to start car,battery is ok, wont start

That Clicking is the Battery causing it not to Start. You need to Replace that Battery or at Least put a Charger on it for a Couple of hours to see if you can Salvage it for a While.

if you open the door you can pop off 2 pieces of plastic that reveal 3 bolts. 3/16 (i think)socket works and you will need an extender. but it is literally 3 bolts and that is it. i bought the part from a dealer and it was $40 and they wanted $90 for install. took me 15 min.

My 2000 cavalier has done this for 6 months. You take your key out then open your door, wait ten minutes and the system resets itself and the car will start-annoying you bet!!!

How to hotwire a Dodge Stratus without keys

You can't. The alarm and more importantly the immobilizer is there to stop exactly what you are trying to do, steal the car without keys. It is all controlled via the ECM, the computer and uses a transponder in the key and The receiver in the steering column talk to the ECM.

Take your registration document down to your local dealership and get 2 keys keys made. Then reset the system.

Be sure immobilizer isnt activating. The anti theft light needs to go out and stop flashing when you turn the ignition key from off to run, otherwise no crank in start position.

1999 Ford Explorer won't start has power no crank replaced battery still nothing.

Look in the underhood fuse block for the starter relay, remove the relay and find the numbers 30 and 87 use a short piece of 16 gauge or larger wire to jump these together and if the starter is OK it will crank if not first check the battery cables (both ends of each please) and if OK replace the starter. I hope this helps. Take care. I hope your treatment work, My wife went through it 3 times and has very little left to remove. If I can be of any more help use testimonial to send me a note and it will show up in my email.

2007 dodge caliber has full power to all electronics. The engine light stays on and when you turn the car to start nothing. Turning the key does not even deam the lights like the starter is getting no

Sounds like the solenoid on the starter is not getting any power, check the small wire connection on the starter to see if there is power in the start position, if not you have an ignition switch problem or an open circuit between the ignition switch and starter solenoid... if you do have power in the crank position then you have a bad starter.

My 2007 dodge caliber wont start

You are dealing with 2 possible problem. The ignition switch,or the alarm, If you have a alarm problem the vehicle will crank then in 2 seconds shut down,this is because the key is recognized,now if this is the problem roll down a window and disconnect the negative battery terminal,put the key in the ignition but in the off position.After 5 minutes reconnect the battery and turn the ignition on but dont crank the engine leave for 1 minute. Then see if that resolved the issue.Now if its an ignition switch problem crank the engine and slowly let it go.try to keep the key in the position where it stays running. By the way there is a campaign of a recall dealing with a TIPM software update Re-configure ,anti-theft system. Customer satisfaction notice G42. You will have to see the dealer for this campaign.

2007 Dodge Caliber

Make sure you have a fully charged battery. When starting the car, push the gas pedal down to the floor to engage the choke. Then push pedal halfway down and turn the ignition. Try jump starting to see if it is the battery. If it still turns slow it may be a bad starter.
