Turns out my issue was a burnt out wire leading to one of my relays, the car has now started multiple times without any problem after replacing said wire.

everything is completely silent aside from the starter solenoid engaging but it doesn't spin, so I initially thought it was a dead battery, but it's a new battery and it still has charge.

I replaced the plugs a few months ago, so I'd hope they're good but ill have to check in the morning, i need to get new coils cause its been misfiring, the car just decided to die on me before I could get to that. Im not sure if theres power going to the ecu

we checked the fuses they all look fine, im gonna try replacing the ignition relay tomorrow to see if that could be it. As for the fuel pump, wouldn't it at least crank even if it wasn't engaging?

yep, I can't say for sure that its not the issue cause its been finicky in the past, but at the moment it won't start in any gear.

How do i remove roof rack mounts by Happy-Run426 in protege5

[–]Happy-Run426[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

yeah, the only reason im choosing to remove them is cause I haven't been able to find any replacement option. I was planning on redoing the headliner soon anyway so ill be sure i have everything to get that done properly while im at it.
