    I store my 360 in the winter and I went to start it today and it wouldn't. I know that the Battery is fine because I keep it on a Battery Maintainer. All of the electrical systems work fine. The batteries in the keys are good. The fuel pumps prime as they always do if the car has been sitting. When I turn the key there is nothing; just silence. I have no clue. If anyone has any ideas I would appreciate it. Thanks

    I guarantee it's your battery and I also guarantee your battery maintainer is not working properly. There are countless (I can't start my car) threads and it always turns out to be the battery and/or battery maintainer. I've been there myself.

    Maybe someone stole the engine over the course of the winter?

    Are you getting a response from the alarm indicator light on the dash from your remotes?

    The same thing happened to me last Friday. I started the car and drove to the airport and then shut it off. Within a few minutes, President Obama and Air Force One just happened to take off a few hundred feet from where I was parked. After he was in the air, I got back in the Spider and, lo and behold, it wouldn't start. It had to have been Obama's fault as the car was running fine up to that point.

    Anyway, after my wife brought me the new battery and a few tools, it started right up and we went home. ;)

    Rifledriver, I'm not sure what you mean, but the alarm works. The turn signal indicators in the dash flash, as does the emergency flasher. It almost seems that the ignition switch is locked. The headlights are fine as well as the high beams.

    Does the red to the left of the steering wheel flash when you enter the car, and then does it stay solid (constantly on) once you hit the fob button?
