My F430 won't start. Not a battery problem. Help!

Hey Guys, was just out driving my 07 F430 on Wednesday with no problems. I came back home and washed the car (Not the engine). I always make sure the car is at operating temp before I wash it just in case some water gets into the engine bay.


I go out to drive it this morning, it turns the engine over fine (Plenty of juice in the NEW battery). I tried several times, but it has no interest in firing up. It switches gears fine, so there's nothing obvious out of the ordinary. No weird lights or strange behavior.

I turned the main switch off and cycled it through with no luck. I stomped the brake, no luck and brake switch works fine. I didn't check any fuses or relays. Could that be a problem? It's gotta be something simple, right?

I appreciate any help.

 

Also, no strong smell of fuel when trying to crank it over like you get sometimes when the ignition isn't working with other cars.

 

The fuel pump fuse is good.

 

Is my immobilizer light supposed to be on when I have the key turned to the on position? Could that be the problem?

I just took it through the emergency starting procedure, but I can't get the light to flash when I push down the accelerator. Any ideas?

 

F430's are different. My fob works to lock and unlock the doors fine. It just doesn't unarm the immobilizer.

 

I can try the battery, but neither one of my fobs work.

 

Thanks for confirming.

 

NEW fob batteries didn't help.

Any other ideas guys?

 

I'm not sure what that is, but would that cause the immobilisor to not disarm?

 

Yeah, I read that too but I can't find a location for that fuse on the immobilizer?

 

I checked (3) immobilizer fuses behind the passenger seat and they were all good.

What in the world is going on..

 

I didn't originally, but I plugged it in later.

 

Battery or the main switch? I've done the switch in the trunk a few times with no luck.
