130,000 miles started fine at the house, drove 4 miles turned engine off. When tried to start 5 minutes later it would not. Engine turns over, new battery. Tried jumping, started. Drove to work. 4 hours later tried starting, won't start. Tried jumping, won't start. Had it towed to the house. Tried reading codes using ignition on, off, on, off, on; went straight to Pdone. Tried cluster self test, no codes revealed. Any ideas on what to try next?

 

Verify that you have fuel pressure at the fuel rail, there should be a small cap with a schraeder valve (tire stem) on it. If no pressure, look at the fuse and relay and possibly fuel pump.

If you have pressure then look at the ignition (make sure you have spark), but troubleshooting methods there depend on which engine you have.

If you have spark and pressure then start looking at crank and cam trigger sensors and associated wiring. Note that you may not get a OBD code thrown right away. Pull each sensor wire connector and verify that it's plugged in tightly.

Hope this helps some.
