that sucks. at least you're ok. try disconnecting the battery for 5 minutes and then reconnecting it.

Re: my 92 ls wont start !help!

Are you getting a CEL *check engine light*?  

What are the symptoms when it dies?

Hows the charging system?

Lights do they still turn on?

Does your motor still turn when you try to start it?

One step at a time, but always look for the easiest first.

Let us know and good luck.

Re: my 92 ls wont start !help!

My CEL light has been on for awhile...the motor does not turn over at all.....it just clicks..everything works like the lights, locks, windows, everything...but the (emergency lights/ blinkers) the car hasnt started yet after it shut off after i drove that 1/2 mile when i changed that blown tire....i knoe the tire shreeded up and hit the side fender airbag sensor and set off the bag becuase the wires that connect to that sersor are ripped off. i do believe that it may be something to do with that airbag deploy...that had shut my car off...probably some kinda off saftey thing...but i can be wrong....

Look under the hood, check your fuseable links. Check to see if anything is blown.

If not, try looking for what fuse is for the airbags, then take it off and re-insert.

If the starter still clicks, it might just need a good "jump" to get it going again....tap on the starter, it is close to the passenger fender as well.

you're saying the car wont start but the lights and radio work. most likely its your starter or alternator

Re: my 92 ls wont start !help!

i checked all the fuses and there all ok except the blinker fuse so i replace them and so now everything works....i took the fender off and the wires that run across the top of the left wheel are all tore up....i taped and wire every single one back together except for the bumper signals, coner light and the air bag sensor...i could wire these back because the other half is missing....this whould probably be the worse tire explosion i have ever seen that can mess up the car like its been hit...the damages are fixable but i still cant start it...the starter is good...battery is great..alternator is good..there air blow radio works...oh but i was wrong it doesnt click at all when i turn the key....but it still wont start does any one knoe how i can find out how to resest the computer or get info...im thinking it may have a impact switch maybe some were in the car....
