Did the car die when you were driving? Or it just randomly wouldn't start?

Did you change the ignition too, or the immobilizer number in the ecu when you swapped it? Did you check all the fuses under the hood? Does it crank at all?

Do you have any codes present in the ecu? A bad crank sensor would prevent it from getting fuel or spark

did it run prior to changing the crank angle sensor? why was the crank angle sensor changed? Did you check you fuel pump is running? it self primes when you turn the ignition on, if you're not getting fuel, then either the fuse is blown, one of two, or both fuel pump relays are bad, or the pump itself is dead, or there's a massive leak somewhere, lol...are you sure you're able to connect to the ECU? If there was an issue with a sensor that's required to run the engine, a DTC would be set. Has it ran since the timing belt was installed? like when did it quit? where you replacing the crank angle sensor, and it won't start after? was it random, it just quit one day for no apparent reason, and you just started replacing parts for no reason? I'm not exactly sure. If the timing belt became contaminated with oil or something, it can fail, etc...


we're drawing straws here, you need to be a little more specific, and it's possible that a timing belt or crank angle sensor could be installed incorrectly...

2011 Mitsubishi Lancer won't start

My car won't start after trying to jump it. It sounds like it is cracking but nothing else happens. The dash lights turn on and the cranking sound is all I get. Prior to my car not being able to start, I have not drove/started my car for about 4 days because my brake light was out. I was finally able to replace it and after I replaced the bulb I was unable to start the car. Right before I replaced it, I was able to start my car.

What could it be?

My 2013 Mitsubishi Lancer would not start because I kept starting and immediately stopping the engine a total of four times. On the fifth time the car would crank but the engine did not turn over. It kept doing this even after waiting a couple of hours. I finally decided to recharge the battery, unplug the ECU (two big harnesses with clips behind the battery), and clean both the battery terminals and clamps. After a solid 14 hours of recharging overnight, it worked fine in the morning and the engine started almost immediately after cranking. The lesson here is do not stop and start the engine as it can completely drain the battery.

Check all fuse possibilities and played with several relays the green ones and play ones, just change the spark plugs like a month ago.


It's been a week can't figure it out.
i have an 08
