I didn't know where to put this but something odd happened to me this morning.

So, I slept at my friends house last night and my car worked fine at like 3am when we went and got grub. So I get in it at like 9:15 and it wouldn't start. Period. No firing. Just nothing. I get under the hood, open the fuse box, and the fuse is a TINY bit loose, so I kind of wiggled it. Then I tried to wiggle the battery cables but they werent loose. So, I get in my car and I turn it once, still nothing. Turn it again, starts up like nothing was ever wrong. ...?

Is it doing anything? Battary dead? Car needs 3 basic things fuel air and spark..Maybe you just killed your batt

Well it started eventually. So I don't think so?

I suggested it is either corroded terminals that dont have good connection- can happen even if they are not loose, or the caps in the ECU are leaking and that can cause weird random starting issues.

You did push in the clutch right ;) haha jk

What about the GHETTO "fuse" you have/had? Did you get that fixed? If not thats probably your problem.

If you are just getting a click click noise than it is your starter.

No. It's not the starter, I would have known that.

But to update, My car has been starting up fine every single time since the one time this morning?
