are you an auto? can't remember.

If so, make sure you are firmly in park before starting.

Maybe even try putting in Neutral and try starting.

Since you are on your phone I will read up a bit, and let you know if there is an "easy" solution.


Oh.... I read somewhere where someone had to "punch" their steering wheel when something like this happened.
No... Mark, your issue does not sound like Toad's issue.... I saw no mention of lack of electricity.

He has a standard.... I thought about suggesting him to push start it.... but I can't imagine they'd do any good if it's an electrical problem

Try reseting the sentry system. Look for the big whit fuse holder with two 60 amp fuses in it. Pull up the white part for about 45 seconds.

Tried to jump start. It starts then as soon as I press clutch engine dies--even after running for five secs or so. Tried three times. Now towed to friends home.
