Well my FX has been sitting for approximately 3 weeks now. I just started it up today for the first time.
It was a lil hard to start up, but only by maybe 1 or 2 extra seconds. It idled just fine and I was letting it warm up while I went n got the mail.
I noticed there was no sign for what gear I was in (park, drive, manual-1/2/3/etc) and there was no beeping sounds at all. If I were to kill it and then keep the key in and open the door, or keep the key in the "ON" position, there would be no beeps.
I tried putting my foot on the brake and putting it in gear, but the shifter wouldn't allow the button to be pushed in b/c of the solenoid interlock with the brake pedal (brake must be pressed when going from park to whatever, you'll hear the click in the shifter when you press the brake).
I tried doing the pedal reset method but it doesn't work b/c the check engine light does not come on, something's a lil screwy.
Tomorrow I'm going to disconnect the negative lead and see what happens.
Ironically enough, exactly 1 year ago today is when the motor blew... wtf?
