Remove the battery and take it to a car parts store (kragen, etc) and have them test your battery. The process is quick and should be complimentary.

Can you get diagnostic scan code when car won't start?

As long as you can get the car to power up (the lights and accessories come on in the RUN/Battery position), you can plug in a diagnostic scanner in and retrieve fault codes. You do not need the engine running. If the car cannot power up, then the computer cannot turn on and the scanner cannot access the fault codes. In this case, you need to find out why the car isn't getting power before you can use the computer to diagnose any problems.


1998 Plymouth Breeze and the car won't start but the lights and everything work?

It could be the starter.. It could be several things. There are shops that will diagnose the problem without charging you. I would call a couple shops and ask if they provide that service. Or they may charge a small fee.


Why do your lights turn onbut your engine wont start?

Maybe you need to check the oil The oil light will stay on until the engine starts. If the oil light was on when it was running and now it will not start then you may have internal engine damage. Take it to a professional.


Car wont start when you crank it up the battery meter goes down and lights go off?

Probably a bad ground from the battery to engine/body.


What does it mean when Slip TCS off and Service Engine Soon lights indicate?

What this usually means is that there is an ignition coil that is going bad or is bad. The TCS light will come on because one of the cylinders are misfiring. When the car senses this, it detects this misfire as "slippery conditions" and the TCS lite will engage. Take it to an autozone and have them diagnose which cylinder is misfiring. Then replace the ignition coil for that cylinder. Dont let the fact that the engine has a cover over it scare you. A 10MM socket wrench will get that right off. Its only 4 nuts. Using that same size socket wrench will loosen the bolt that holds the ingntion coil intact to the engine. Once you replace that coil, put that cover back on, you will be good to go!
