Car won't start....Help

Disko21 · 01-08-2005, 07:26 AM

Hey guys, I've read a couple of messages regarding cars not starting because of some issue with the chip in the key and the coding. Anyway, I had to have my car towed today because I couldn't get the thing started. The car cranks but does not start. The "Theft" light flashes rapidly and according to the manual, I should take it to the dealer. Does anyone know about how much they're going to charge me to fix it? Is there any way around it? Your help would be appreciated.

Thanks.

ignition module, a fusible link or both, ignition module is an easy fix, fusible link,means shop time...looking at around $200 for labor and computer time.
