    Question Engine won,t start...HELP

    Wife took the VX this morning. It started right up...no problem. Stopped at gas station to fill it up. Turn key. All lights, bells, and whisles work. Starter does not turn. No clicking...nothing. Any ideas? Thanks!

    It is most likely the switch on the shifter that makes sure transmission is in park. Try turning the key on and holding the brake down and running it through the gears and back to park. If this fixes it it may be slightly out of adjustment. If not it may be deeper in the electrical system or a bad switch and require a trip to the dealer.

    Is the theft light blinking like it normally does? Could be something with the theft system.

    Jay and Andy,
    Thanks for the responses. Found my problem. Previous owner had something aftermarket installed which was removed prior to my purchase. Anyway they had spliced the power wire under the dash and the wife kicked it loose. Respliced...good as new!
