Hey guys I need to know if you guys can help me out with a problem im having. I was trying to fix today the center brake light and I was using my power probe, under the dash in the front I sent electricity through the white and blue sensor by the brake pedal. Now the car doesnt start and the parkbrake is stuck, on the dash it says PARKBRAKE FAULT. The rear wheels are locked and it doesnt do anything when I turn the key and incase it helps the front lights just the low beams dont work. I really need help this is my only car and I need it for tomorrow.

 

Check the fuse before anything else.

 

Oops, I'd start by checking fuses and a battery reset.

How much voltage did you send through it?

 

Which fuse should I check, thanks alot for the help really appreciate it.

 

I sent 12volts and already tried battery reset, didnt work.

 

The car does not start but does it turn over?
What is the red PATS light on top of the dash doing when you try to start it?

the pats light is off and it doesnt turn over

 

Flat battery. Hope it's nothing else.

 

I think your on to something, I also hope it's the battery I'm gonna see what I do, thanks for the help guys if you think of anything else let me know thanks a lot.

 

Just had my battery checked it's not the battery.

 

Turn your headlights on. Then have someone look at them when you attempt to start the car. Do they dim?

If they do dim it could be the battery or a starter problem.

What is the resting voltage and what is the voltage when you attempt to start the car?

If the car does not crank and the battery is OK this points back to the PATS system again.

How did you have battery tested ?

 

AAA came and tested the battery, the headlights don't turn on and the car doesn't crank. This is really a mind boggler, i don't think it's the pats system because it says PARKBRAKE FAULT also none of the lights on the dash are on except the airbag.

 

Have you checked all fuses?

Under the hood, in the trunk and passenger compartment?

 

That's a lot of problems!

I think I would try a substitute battery before going any further.
Too many things went wrong at once?

Just a thought but how did the battery get tested? If it was removed from the car are you sure the connections are clean and tight?

Guys thanks a lot for the help but a mechanic friend of mine found the problem turns out it was 1 of the brake sensors ( the one I was messing with) went bad.

 

That's good but the brake sensors don't control if the engine turns over or not? Something is not clear?

Do you mean brake lights or ABS sensors?

Forgot to mention the reason it wouldn't start is because the pats system went crazy and the key got unprogrammed, my mechanic told me the car thought I was trying to take it, but all is Well know, thanks again for the help guys.

 

If you say so but highly doubtful. Thanks for the follow up.
