Default Starting issues......

We replaced the battery with a new one.....accessories go on....radio and nav kick in....push the button but nothing. Green light is on for the push start button but nada.

Other than the start button TSB, any ideas?

Since the battery is not the problem, I would look at the connection to the starter motor and the starter motor itself. I think a few members here have had to replace their starter motor. You might try searching this forum. I think there was a recent thread on this subject.

I'm assuming your foot is firmly on the brake pedal.

Brake interlock switch? If the switch is not telling the starter that the brake pedal is depressed, the car wont start.

Try this...press the start button twice (until the ignition is on). Then, hold the starter button down for about 30 seconds. Does the engine start?

I'll have to try this later today.
