First, try resetting the systems in the car by disconnecting the negative cable from the battery for 30 sec. The MICU unit may have lost it's mind. But more likely it has failed and needs replacing. The other possibility might have been the RFID sensor in the ignition switch has failed. But since the car is not responding to two of the FOBS, I'm guessing the MICU.

 

Thanks, is the MICU something I can replace myself if it is indeed bad?

 

Please check all the fuses. Think I remember something where a blown fuse kept the engine from running???

 

Thanks for the tips but it did not help. I unplugged the battery for a minute then reconnected it, didn't help. I checked all the appropriate fuses with a multimeter and none were blown. I'm at a loss for what to do besides getting it towed to the dealer.

If I had to take a guess there may be a short in the electrical system that is messing around with it. I have to jump the car to get it to even start it. The split second I take the jumper cables off the battery dies. The battery aint that old, maybe 2.5 years and I wasn't suspecting any issues when it was running properly not that long ago. If it aint that then I don't know.

Looking at some Youtube videos it certainly looks like its the MICU..... but why would that just randomly fail? It's frustrating.

Because those dumb engineering have yet to predict exactly when electronics will fail. Only that electronics at some point in time will fail.
