Yesterday, my truck refused to start. Cranks well but just won't start. I noticed two strange things. The AC or condenser fan comes up even when the ignition is in the "ON" position and the fan regulator is OFF. Secondly, the security indicator light on d dash comes on and remains solid after 3seconds of turning the key to the ON position. I have tried everything I read .....from swapping relays in d IPDM to resetting the security by locking the car with the key in two rapid succession. Can't say I have checked all the fuses bcoz I really don't which to check(although I checked a couple) Any ideas? Pls help.

Sounds like a dead battery to me.

Sounds like a weak battery mine did the same.

Phones spazzing out meant sounds like a weak battery or possible bad or lose connection at battery terminal.

I just checked the battery and terminals....they are fine

Well just a thought could you be using the spare key that came with the truck has no chip on it just for doors an tailgate. If not I'm dumb founded.

I have been using the spare key for 2years now. I lost the master key and the remote 2yrs ago.never had dis problem. I think my driver must have connected the battery terminals wrongly because I had to change the battery.

Pls I need suggestions. The truck is still sitting with the problem

It has to be something with the immobiliser chip. Dead batteries mess those up bad.

 

[Adeniyi]

What's the immobilizer chip? Where is it located in the truck? I lost the remote like 2yrs ago.

Still waiting for opinions and suggestions
