legacyeric Posted December 6, 2022 Share Posted December 6, 2022 Hey there new to the site..my 2009 legacy 2.5i has a issue where the starter will crank 2 or 3 times then stops almost seemed like a bad ignition switch so I replaced that and same problem changed the starter and same issue if I jump the starter with 12volts it spins no problem im stumped also appears i have no spark aswell! Hoping you guys can shed some light my way thanks! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
silverton Posted December 6, 2022 Share Posted December 6, 2022 (edited) that is the immobilizer keeping the vehicle from starting. key mismatch or some other fault. Edited December 6, 2022 by silverton Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
legacyeric Posted December 6, 2022 Author Share Posted December 6, 2022 Okay I will look into that makes sense..I did notice that the security light is solid when trying to start it is that another sign or should the security light stay illuminated while cranking the engine?

silverton Posted December 6, 2022 Share Posted December 6, 2022 Regardless of what the security light is doing in the dashboard, you need to connect a scan tool to the vehicle, to know what's wrong. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
