Car has been running fine. Wife got in car and would not start. Engine turns over but does not start. Does not even sound like its trying to start. No codes.

Any fuel pressure?

Check schrader valve at front of fuel rail with blue plastic cap.

If you have fuel and spark next item should be crankshaft sensor. 40 dollars at your local auto parts store. Located at the bottom of the engine bell housing.

There won't be a fuel test port on the '06 and up models, you have to install a T fitting between the fuel hose and rail to install a pressure gauge. These adapters come as part of fuel pressure test kits.

Another possible cause is low battery voltage while cranking. If the voltage falls much below 10.5 volts while cranking, the Engine Control Module (ECM) will not trigger the ignition to fire.

Cheers,

Don

Check fuse for fuel pump in trunk before any fuel pressure test. I had my Jag tow to house. It had same issue with no code and crank but no start. It was a blown fuse.

20 amp fuse at F33. Not all code reader will read fuel code.
