#1 of 4 WEIRD 2002 Oldsmobile Intrigue problem by psweeney Aug 27, 2009 (11:03 am)
I have a 2002 oldsmobile intrigue, it just started have a problem when I go to start the car. Sometimes I get nothing when I turn the ignition key, no crank, but all the lights and gauges come on fine. I try several times and nothing. Then I try an hour later and it starts right up like normal. It will start 6 or 7 times in a row with no problem then nothing when I turn the key. Any ideas?

Replying to: psweeney (Aug 27, 2009 11:03 am) Nothing surprises me about this vehicle...   Judging what you are describing, my first guess is a bad ignition switch. A bad ignition switch can cause very "interesting" problems including intermittent starting and stalling.   Are you having any other driving issues? Any "check engine" lights on?

Replying to: dtownfb (Aug 28, 2009 3:10 pm) Thanks for the reply!   No other issues, no check engine light..... the change oil light came on a week ago, but I know that has nothing to do with it.   If it isn't the ignition switch, what else could it be?

Replying to: psweeney (Aug 28, 2009 5:35 pm) It could be a few things: fuel pressure regulator, beginnings of a bad crankshaft sensor, bad connection at the battery, etc.   The igniton switch is a very, very common repair on the 1999-2002 3.5L Intrigues. It seems the 2002 fail quicker. Also check the connections at the batteries.   I had the same experience as you with my 2000 Intrigue. For months, some mornings it woudl start right away, other times it would take 10 tries. Then I stalled a couple of times while driving and the "security" light came on. Then everytime I started the vehicle, I needed at least 4 tries. This happened over several months so it took a while for me to diagnose the problem.
