First thing to do nearly EVERY time you encounter a problem.......... Check the battery voltage (HAS to be 12.6 volts after sitting overnight) and do a Hard Reset by touching the disconnected battery cables together for several seconds while avoiding any contact with the battery itself. This resets all the volatile memory in all the modules and may very well cure the problem. It costs zero dollars and takes maybe ten minutes. No sense in doing anything else until this is tried first.

HELLO Cee Jay:
Thank you for your response. I did do what you suggested before and no fix. I should have reported that the car started when I backed out of the garage and shut it off. About 10 minutes later, the problem started.
