A couple of mornings ago I left my lights on (it was pouring) at work all day, when I came out the car was dead. Tried to jump it and later charged the battery but nothing happened. Not a clicking sound or anything. A friend told me I might have some kind of factory kill switch or something. Is it possible? I bought the car last year and nothing was said of an alarm or kill switch.

That is not uncommon with that alarm/immobilizer system. You need to turn the key to unlock position in the door to disarm the system.

try unplugging the negitive cord from the battery for a couple of minutes after the battery has charged then put it back on. the car alarm should go off turn the alarm off and try starting the car.

My car sat in the parking lot of my work for 7 days. A few people at work looked at it and said it must be my battery, alternator or starter, one guy mentioned a kill switch or alarm so I decided to do some research on this site. It seemed that this kind of car had alot of problems with the alarm (which I didn't know I had, because it must have been somewhat deactived and also the old owner didn't say I had one). I came across a thread from Boschmann with instructions on how to bypass the alarm. I asked a friend to do it for me, he did it in about 10 minutes and my car started right up! I just want to say thank you Boschmann for your knowledge!! I will be using this site from now on.
Thank you again Boschmann!!!
