YO YO CHECK all your fuses. Check the ECU fuse.... I had a S-AFC and I had it wired a little funny. It blew the fuse. Also Check to see if your Fuel Pump went out way to do this is basically turn key to on postion and listen for a TINY wine noise. That would be your pump.

yeh, it could be your ECU fuse going out due to humidity or the moisture.

But also, this happened to me few times.

It maybe the cam crank sensor and angle sensor that's wet, automatically shutting the car down.

Most of the times, it'll happen in the rain.

did it throw a code?

thx man, you were right it was the ECM fuse, since it reset the ECU there are no codes and the tech didn't know why this happened so i'm keeping a few extra fuses in my car now.

I bet it happens again, its the fuse on the other end (the starter), If not, I'll mail you a dognut and a beer. if it happens again, have them check the starter wire! my2c
