In this case, the starter motor’s
speed sounds normal, or even faster
than normal, when you turn the
ignition switch to the START (III)
position, but the engine does not run.

Are you using the proper starting
procedure? Refer to

on page .

There may be an electrical
problem, such as no power to the
fuel pump. Check all the fuses
(see page

).

If you find nothing wrong, you will
need a qualified technician to find
the problem. See

on page

.

Are you using a properly coded
built-in key or remote? An
improperly coded built-in key or
remote will cause the immobilizer
system indicator in the instrument
panel to blink rapidly (see page

).

Do you have fuel? Check the fuel
gauge; the low fuel indicator may
not be working.

Although this seems like a simple
procedure, you should take several
precautions.

You cannot start your vehicle by
pushing or pulling it.
