2004 Ralliart ignition problems
I have a 2004 Ralliart and I have been having a problem with the engine not starting. I’ll get out and go into a store and when I come back out and try to start it won’t cut on. If I wait a few minutes or unhook the battery and wait a few minutes it starts with no problem. I don’t get a clicking noise it just won’t cut on. It also just cut off in the middle of the road once, I waited about two minutes and it cut back on and I drove it home which is a good 40 miles or so with no problems. Anyone might have any idea what might cause this?

Sounds like an issue with your fuel pump relay.

When you say it wont cut on, do you mean that the engine cranks but fails to start ?
OR
That nothing happens when the key is turned.

It could be your starter but that wouldn't make it cut off while your driving. Is your car a stick or auto?
