My daughter called last night at midnight when she got out of work.
She'd started her car with her remote starter, but when she got in the car, she thinks she hit something on the fob, the car stalled, and now she can't turn the ignition key or take it out of park.
The remote starter still works and it runs. Once started, you can turn the steering wheel freely. If you start it with the remote, then step on the brake, the car stalls as designed. But it will start right up again.
The car will lock and unlock from the remote -- but the horn doesn't chirp. This suggests to me that the alarm isn't setting- so it can't clear itself.
I'm about to go l.ook at it in the daylight-- check all the fuses, try manually locking the car.
If that doesn't work does anyone have some suggestions on where to look next?
Thanks, Jim
