1. If your car has an automatic transaxle,
be sure the shift lever is in N (Neutral)
or P (Park) and the emergency brake
is set.
2. Check the battery connections to be sure they are clean and tight.
3. Turn on the interior light. If the light dims or goes out when you operate the starter, the battery is discharged.

2. With the ignition switch in the LOCK position, check all connectors at the ignition coils and spark plugs.
Reconnect any that may be disconnected or loose.
