Maybe it isn't starting becuase you screwed up the pats system. See what your securtiy light is doing when you try and start it.




How would I check the PATS system? I watched the red dash light as I tried to start it last night, it just blinked every few seconds.





the pats light blinks when the ignition is off, when you put the key in and turn to position three the light should light for a few seconds then turn off and stay off until the ignition is no longer in position 3

I don't remember, does the fuel pump run when you turn the key to run (position 3)?

starting to sound like the ignition switch isn't working right
