help... car wont start
Everything was fine last night... now im not getting much juice and after a few seconds when i do get some it gives me the "check brake system" code... i charged the battery, but its still doing the same thing... i even disconnected the battery hoping it would restart the comp, but no luck. any ideas??

Does it crank over quickly, like it usually does? Or does it crank slowly and weak sounding? If it is weak sounding, try a jump start and see if that helps. If so, your battery is probably in the crapper.

i ended up taking the battery out and charging it up again and got it to turn over... everything seemed fine, but then my parking light on the pass side would not shut off or work as a signal... weird, so its at the dealership right now... if that light doesnt shut off im sure the battery will be drained again soon enough.

I vote battery. The smart junction box controls all the electrical systems on the car and it freaks out when the voltage gets low. The first time it did it to me, I thought the car was either possessed, or the ECU had completely fried. Just a low battery!

turns out i did need a new battery... never had one die within 2 years before... but at least it was still under warranty
on a side note, what is this silver piece i have circled in the pic?? it was clicking like crazy when i was trying to start it that day... im guessing its the starter??
