yeah but idk how to move it to tech. i realized when i posted it. im so used to being in talk i forgot about tech lol. but idk. i was getting outa the car and i heard a spark come under my drivers seat and a bit of smoke. ffrom there on its been like that. it happened like around 4 pm today. i gotta roll around with my club now so no one will steal it. my locks are busted maybe a circuit breaker is blown or fuse? my grandpa said something night have gone wrong in the ECU and my dad says the lock thing is pure mechanical, no electronics. so im not sure. this has got me extremely nervous and worried.

Bad ignition switch maybe? There is a or was a recall or TSB on those things, I would check it out to see if its split apart and check the lock tumbler too.

Can you start the engine without the key or just power up.

So the fuel pump relay under the drivers seat sparked, can you hear it prime when you turn the key. (or no key)
