Would a P1124 code prevent a car from starting

I am still chasing a crank/ no start

Yes.

At this point you might find a good indie to look into it.

So what causes a P1124?

Fuel pump, wiring or DME?

There are 3 subcodes. A PIWIS or PST2 could be used to point to which one is present. Each subcode has three possible listed causes.

And now things get fun or expensive or both. Good luck.

Too bad for me

Sounds like the start of a sad tale, I do not have advanced testing tools.

Thanks

"Luckyman"...

If you've time, just keep troubleshooting. Take detailed notes... what you did... what didn't work. Keep searching these pages. Someone else has been there, and maybe shared a solution. If you exhaust all efforts, then you can source an indie. Good luck, er, best wishes.

P1124: Fuel/air mixture is so lean on bank 1 that the DME can no longer compensate.

Possible causes:
- intake system air leak
- Fuel pressure too low
-Plugged fuel injector
-Fuel volume delivery too low
