Bought this 2011 with problem. Had a GPS tracker but was tracker only, Enterprise Rental. If key is not right will it try to start or not ? Thanks in advance.

I moved this to it’s own thread, wasn’t relevant to thread from 2008.

depending on the tracker device and how it was removed, it shouldn’t render the car to not start.
check the fuse box for loose relays and fuses, are the 7 mm bolts tight?

Check your work at the ignition switch, any wires loose? Ground wires?
