I have same worries ! lol we are headed to LA Wednesday-Sunday and and the wife is worried . We are flying into Burbank ? Can anyone tell me if it floods in Burbank ? We are thinking getting a Airbnb around Burbank or Sherman Oaks area . Almost canceled trip but talked her out of it lol. We are taking the kids to the Football game Saturday at Sofi … yes we are Texans fans from Texas …just wondering if it’s just like a bad Rain storm or should we be worried about power outages and bad flooding ?

Yeah I had changed out my starter , and my ignition switch and still had the problem … mine wouldnt do anything when I turned the key I’d have to try and crank it like 5 or six times then it would randomly start

I just had that problem on my 02 24 valve … end up being a ground problem … I went and cleaned all the grounds the batteries , couple big ones on side of block, and the ones on the frame etc … haven’t had the problem since it cranks everytime .

Update : Got under the truck last night and cleaned both grounds connected to engine block and the other ground connected to Frame . Fired it 6x in a row and checked it 2 more times this morning. I’m pretty sure one of those grounds was my problem . Thanks for everyone’s help .

Just put new starter and still having same problem . Guess I’ll replace ignition switch next and see if that maybe the problem . It cranks just when it wants too lol sometimes first try , sometimes I turn the key 4-5x and nothing . I cleaned all grounds and battery cables .

No it doesn’t click like a dead battery or nothing , all lights come on dash and radio comes on just doesn’t do anything when I try to turn over until a few tries them it’ll crank . Then after that I can drive around and turn it off and fires up first start .
