my 98 cl is acting very strange.i didnt drive it for a week and when i tried to start it up it wont start and the lights flash as soon as i open the doors.when you unplug the abs unit under the pass. seat the lights wont flash but the car still wont start .any suggestions?

 

anybody?

 

My first guess would be that you have a very week battery, and your factory alarm was going off. Does the car crank at all? And when you say the lights flash, are you talking about the headlights?

 

i mean the headlights and tailights.also the gauge pod.if it is the alarm how will I reset it?and I guess I should have a fully charged batt right?

 

oh and the car wont crank at all.

 

I had this happen before just last week. I unlocked the door and for some reason, the chirp was way louder and distorted than usual. I got in the car, turned the key to on, the fan went on for a few secs, but when I tried to start it, everything just went dead. I popped the hood, inspected the batery and noticed that the battery terminal was slightly dirty and loose. I cleaned it up with a battery terminal brush, tightened it back up, then everything worked just fine. Just take off the terminal clamps, clean the battery terminal, clean the inside of the clamps (with a coarse brush to get the corrosion off) and then tighten them back up. Worked for me but maybe this is different?

Good luck.

 

could possibly be ur security fuse is blown i had a problem where my alarm was goin off but no sound lights flashing so i replaced the fuse and it took care of problem...o btw if u replace that fuse than i believe u will have to reset ur srs light but there is a gude on how to do it hope this info helps
