Q: After diagnosis of no problems, car won't start properly
The auto shop had my car for over a week. When I picked it up, they reported that they couldn’t find any problem at all. After driving it home, it sits like it doesn’t want to start again. The battery is at full charge (per aaa) and the ‘key’ light is on. My key fob has 2 new batteries The car’s tank is ½ full of gasoline. I can’t figure out what’s going on! I’ve tried anything and everything that I know to try or do. And they said there’s nothing wrong with the car! Can you tell me what is causing this?
