it's dead! help
On my 2002 coupe everything has been just fine until now.
I just tried to start the car. Put the key in, turned it and... NOTHING!
I may have heard a click but I'm not sure. I don't see any messages displayed, steering wheel is locked, very limited electrical power. When I try to move the seat it barely moves. I hear a buzzing noise from whatever module is under the passenger floor. Any ideas of what the problem may be are greatly appreciated while I search the forums.
Okay. I tried it again a few times and I got the "pull key wait 10 seconds" message, but only once.
a micro relay in the passenger foot well is buzzing intermittently. it's #37 "monitored ld".
anybody know what this is for?

Had that this morning along with a nice *click*click*click. I tried to charge my battery didnt seem to hold a charge then tried to use the charger to start and nothing more than click* click* click. I'm buying a new battery when I get out of the office and I will square off in round 2.

Thanks. I'm going to try the battery after I finish a few things at work.
Thankfully it's nice and sunny and warm (for here) today instead of cold and snowing. I'm sure people will get a kick out of watching me work on my car in the parking lot.

Had the same problem, worked one second and dead the next. It was actually a good thing it happened because the battery was just starting to leak. Put in an Optima and had no problems since.
