So I have been lost for days. No trunk control no power windows and of course just dash lights no start.**** This morning bored I sat in car to cry and I decided to hit hood latch and it worked.**** First time in a week. So I tried starting it. Also worked. Now I don't want to turn it off.**** But what would cause anti theft immobilizer to shut down features on Saturday but work Sunday. Now I'm really lost.****

Quick update
So I drove the car for about hour around town but never shut it off. I'm sitting in a parking lot with car on. I cannot put up windows or open trunk / hood. It's gone back in immobilizer mode while car is on. The odd thing is the hood / trunk dash light is on. That's what gave me a sign there was a problem. So even with car running it will immobilize itself. Hopefully I can get home.

Maybe it's Jewish ?

Glad you got it going.
