so i went to start up the sti tnight after a party and well it didnt start!!! i was pretty pissed and confused! the lights and everything worked fine, it just didnt turn over. I tried jumping it and nothing happened so its not the battery. Anyone got any ideas on what to do. The only mod I have is a cat back and it only has 18000 miles so i dunt think its the started but who knows?

 

Maybe a computer chip in your key? my cars too old for that technology

parking light switch on your column? jk good luck

 

2 things that I could think of - steering column lock and clutch pedal blockage (maybe something is in the way of getting the clutch fuly depressed, happens in my toyota tundra a lot b/c of the stupid floormats!)

 

Maybe it was the goddess of the Pleiades telling you that you weren't in a condition to drive. If you still need help, let me know, and I'll be right over to start your car.

 

hahah no i was 100% sober on account of i dont drink, I still have your number from the last time you saved me, I might be calling you later this afternoon

 

yeah toyota trucks do that , it happened on my tacoma too, there's a clutch switch on there. my suby took a long time to start yesterday too, i was late to a meeting at work and didnt time my car and just shut it off right when i got there, when i got out it took forever to start, just kept cranking, i finally got it started after letting it sit for awhile, but i think it was because i abruptly shut off the car, maybe that was it?

 

I'll see you tomorrow to order that clutch switch. Glad it was something easy that I could temporarily fix...
