Re: H3 wont start. Stay tuned
Hi All,
I'm new to the forum but have experienced intermittent starting problems as previously described. It's taken a little while to work out as the dealer couldn't replicate it or find any codes on the onboard computer. However, after trial and error I have found the engine immobilizer to be the culprit (If it won't start leave it for ten minutes and try again). According to the dealer this is a completely separate system so doesn't show up when they run normal diagnostics.
Next time the engine fails to start, check whether the padlock symbol is flashing on the dash.

Re: H3 wont start. Stay tuned
Well the dealer had my H3 yesterday and found a loose connector to the immobilizer unit behind the dash. A bit of contact cleaner, refit and re-program and all is well, allegedly. If I have any more problems I will let you know.

I heard nobody walks in LA, but I'm curious about the outcome too.

LOL .. you guys are too much. I don't think anyone walks in DOWNTOWN LA, except during M-F daytime business hours, but that's downtown LA. No one goes there unless they work there. But, everywheres else ... allllll of the beach cities: Malibu, Santa Monica, Manhattan Beach, Hermosa Beach, Redondo Beach, Palos Verdes, Long Beach .. all are a walkers/runners/bikers (bicycles) paradise, every day of the year.
You're right, though .. Stagger hasn't given us an update.
