[QUOTE="MrSkunks, post: 1508268, member: 38344"] So my ‘14 with 111k miles was sitting in my driveway for the past 3 days without being driven. We’ve had some really hot days recently but this car has always been a Florida car so I can’t imagine the heat it what finally did it. Only other thing I can think of is that since I’ve owned it, I put 87 octane. I decided last week I would start putting Shell 93. Maybe since the energy density of 93 is slightly lower, the fuel pump had to work just a little bit harder getting fuel into the engine and finally made it go. I checked the fuse 6 months ago and it was nice and shiny. Anyways, I grabbed my keys today, hit the auto start from inside the house to get my AC going while I put my shoes on. I open the door and hear no engine. So I give it another go and all I hear is starter noise. Was cranking pretty hard so I knew it wasn’t the battery, maybe some sort of remote start lock out? Get in the car, crank the engine.. nope. Open my glove box and luckily I ordered a 20a fuse a couple months back before a rode trip. I know sometimes it burns it so bad a new fuse won’t help, but it was a couple of cents. The second I open fuse box, I can see the 20a has a slight burn on it. I start to take it out and sure enough, one ended is completely burned but I was able to get it out in one piece. In goes the new fuse and she came back to life. I instantly ordered the fuse 27 kit, but it won’t be here until Wednesday. Now that it happened, after 111k miles, what are the chances it happens in the next couple of days with a new fuse? I’ve seen the videos, while it might seem easy for some, I’m not sure I feel like digging into the fuse box. What would a small shop charge me to do something like this? An hour of labor? [/QUOTE]
