Car won't start after I used an obd2 scanner?
I got a obd2 scanner yesterday, plugged it in to my 2002 ford explorer started it fine, took it off and this morning it wouldn't start! Gauges move and the only lights that turn is the abs light but it won't crank… Battery is good maybe fuse?
You left a scanner attached all night? Powered up? With it's indicator lights on? All night?
Have you ever left the glove box light on all night?
You ran the battery down. Charge it and all will be fine.
Ok what is it doing? Clicking no clicking?
Didn't leave anything on and it got disconnected right after I used it. There's no clicking from starter but there's a random clicking sound in/near the fuse box in the engine bay. I'm pretty sure the battery is good. I think it had something to do when I disconnected the obd2 scanner. Before that it ran fine
Never heard of a scan tool preventing a car from starting, probably you left the key on or spent to much time with the scanner hooked up, key on, and engine not running, sounds like a dead battery
- Why won't my car start after shutting down on highway? My car shut down while driving on the highway. I tried to turn it back on but it won't start. It cranks but won't start. The battery is fine. The fuel pump is fine. I think the distributor cap isn't getting power. Can it be the ignition module? Its a 1994 ford tempo lx with 70k miles on it.
- Why did my car start and die when put into gear? Now it won't start at all? It's a cold winter day (below zero) Car started right up! I let it run for about 2 minutes, I put it in gear and it just died. I figured it's cold out, not real surprising, but when I tried to start it again, it won't start! Turns over fine but engie won't start! Any ideas? 2003 Ford Taurus 3.0L
- Ford Mustang 2004 car won't start after battery terminal changed? Had my battery in my 2004 ford Mustang changed. The terminal broke and was a little loose, but the car still ran.
