Car cranks but will not start.
12 Answers
Is the "Key" or "Security" light on on the dash by chance? Are you getting fuel pressure? Have a friend stand by the fuel pump, and listen if it kicks on. Otherwise try spraying some starter fluid in the throttle body. If it starts up, you know you've got a fuel issue.
Hello DTRJDev. No the security light isn't on. I can hear the fuel pump humming. I've tried spraying starter fluid in the throttle body and it still didn't start.
Have you verified you have spark? Do you have a check engine light on?
Yes, there is spark. Yes, the engine light was on.
Can you find a way to scan it, and pull the Diagnistic Troubleshooting Codes? This would likely help a lot.
Okay. I'll try to work that out. I'll let you know when I can get it done. Thanks

I had the same problem and I have tried to use the scanner and it does not end me any codes it states that the scanner cannot read any codes
I've tried all those suggestions except code scanner. I don't have access to a code reader. The car still won't start. Is there anything else I can try?
Most auto parts stores will loan you a scanner for $35 and give you the money back when you bring the scanner back. That is your best option currently.

I did the scanner but it's not connecting with my car
Ignition needs to be on for scanner to work
