Re: car wont start

If all your radio settings have been reset, it sounds like hte car lost power. It's possible the car just doesn't have enough cold cranking amps or something is shorting out or was left on and drained it. Just because you can get power to the lights/stereo etc, doesn't mean it has enough power left to crank the car. Try going to Autozone, they will charge the battery for free.

If you have a fully charged battery and hte car still wont start, check for fuel and spark, as you obviously need both. If you don't know how to check for one or the other let us know. Both are very simple.

Lastly, any chance you did anything to the car recently?

Your 1996 Mitsubishi 3000GT VR-4 is the 92nd out of the 315 that were made that year. Only 21 of which are exactly identical.
