    Angry vn calais won't run in the morning?

    hey there everyone i need help this thing is screwing with my head , i go to start it in the morning and it will fire once and then stop and if i try starting it again it just winds over, but after about midday it will start and run fine, i have noticed that when it does't want to go the engine check light does not come up (when the ignition lights are on before start up) it has had a new ignition module a few months back and i have tried another engine controler in it (the one under the left kick panel) does anyone have any ideas i can try???

    Without a CEL, suspect a fault in the anti-theft system. The switch for it is in the glovebox, at the front near the top. If you have the key, maybe try switching it off.

    The module is above the vent tube above the govebox. If the switch and remote are OK, that is suspect.

    The battery for the remote may be dead/dying. If you have another remote, maybe try that one instead, otherwise the batteries aren't particularly expensive to replace. Sometimes the battery contacts don't (contact).

    sounds like you have no injector pulse, which would indicate a problem with the anti-theft as the cel light is not coming up. its a simple system so if you dont have the key for the switch pull the wires off the back of the switch in the glovebox and twist them together. that should disable the anti-theft
