Clean you holes....
... no not that one... Get your mind out of the gutter... I am talking about your keyhole ;) :jester:
I went to lunch, and when I was ready to leave the car wouldn't crank. So after my spout of cursing and raging hell, I decided to check the codes. There were 2, P1631 and B2721. I called a buddy, who looked the codes up. Turned out that they were pointing to the Key chip. So I ran in the restaurant, and got an alcohol swab from the first-aid kit. I then wrapped it around my key and proceeded to clean my keyhole. The car then cranked!
So keep your hole clean! :jester:

Re: Clean you holes.... (DanielALee)
Good posting and reminder. I had the same problem when
my car was two weeks old. The dealer told me to clean the
key it started. Maybe we shoud all keep an acohol swab in
the useless console storage area.
