Security light had been coming on and off for a few days. I stopped at a card lock petroleum station for gas I went to start car and nothing,engine didn't even turn over. A local farmer gave me a jump, still nothing. I used his cellphone to call a mechanic friend of mine,he told me it to wait 15 minutes and try again. He said if it still didn't start that I would have to reset it and so I wrote down the instructions said thank you to the gentleman for the use of his phone. I waited still nothing.
