Hi All!

I recently bought a used car and for some reason all of a sudden I cannot get it started. It cranks but that's it. It has a Viper 300ESP in it which the previous owner didn't mention. Can the alarm be contribtuing to this problem? Also, if I run 12 volts from the battery to the coil it will start, but that''s the only method.

Help is very much appreciated. Thanks, Dan

normally the alarm has a starter kill that will cut the starter wire... which would not allow it to crank. What kind of car are we talking about here? Sounds like you may have a fuse problem instead of an alarm problem though.

Ign feed to coil, or engine management, check ALL the fuses preferably by removing one at a time and using the continuity setting on a DMM.
