Unfortunately, I don't have much info (she had to take a cab to work so I couldn't quiz her much) so I'm kinda looking for info on what SHE might be doing wrong. I'm starting on the premise that I didn't leave the lights on last night and kill the battery. She got into the car using the remote. She's only driven it a couple of times - so.... What do you think! I need some possible solutions within the next 6-8 hours (it's 1:13 here in Chicago) to trouble-shoot by phone when she gets off work.

It's a '99 with a manual. Less than 15K miles. Mild weather today. Driven every single day.

Thanks!
Hi,

I assume that she pressed the Clutch to de-energize the Starter Lock-Out Switch?

Happy Motoring!... Jim'99
