Hello Evom,

I have a big problem since this car is my DD. I removed both seats of my car because the seat rails are rusting pretty bad and I want to repair it. Now the car wont start, I hear ticking noise but the car will not start. Here's the detail on what I did step by step.

1. Removed the center console, removed the ICS connector and lighter connector.
2. Removed Passenger seat, 4 bolts.
3. Removed Driver Seat 4 bolts and there's a 2 wire connector under the seat.

4. Now im probably going to get bashed on this one for being an idiot but this might be what's causing the problem. I need to removed the car off the driveway, so I started it up.
It started cranking and would not start. I tried to start it the second time and it will not start.

5. I put all the connectors that I removed, ICS, Lighter, and put the Driver Seat Back and the connector on the bottom. I tried starting it and all I hear is clicking noise.

6. I removed the battery terminal and waited 5 mins. Tried starting the car with same result, only ticking noise from the starter I assume.

7. Message EVOm for help. Please help me out. I'm in the USAF and stationed in the AZORES right now. The Evom community is all I got for help. Thanks in advance guys.

Sounds stupid.. but there's no chance your battery could of gone flat from having doors open interior lights on etc? If your hearing ticking from the starter it must be passed the immobiliser and trying to start.

I had this happen before, but I was doing some wiring for gauges and CD player. It ended up being my battery. I had it tested and it was junk.
