I bought an 88 Camry Wagon five days ago and this problem has happened three or four times out of may two dozen times I've started it. When I try to start the car nothing happens, I get the warning lights (including "check battery") but nothing else. I immediatly thought that the battery was dead, but nope, the battery was fine. So a few minutes later I tried starting it again and it started right away, no problems. Each time this happens I only have to wait a minute or two and it starts great.
This is more of an annoyance than a major problem, but I'm curious if anyone else has had this problem. My mom said her old Corolla had the same problem and they tried several mechanics but no one could fix it.
