When I went to start my car it turns over just fine but will not start, my son drove it 15 minutes earlier and said it ran fine. A friend of mine brought a code reader over but could find no error codes at all. On the – when I turn the key on the engine throttle control light and the engine light comes on. Is it my ignition or something else having to do with the engine throttle control light? I can't miss anymore work please let me know if this is it an expensive fix, and where do I start if I can't get an error code?

Hello,

This sounds like the TIPM or crankshaft sensor is out neither will show a code. Here is the location of the sensor and instruction is the diagrams below to show you how to replace the TIPM it's easy because it self initializes. Check out the diagrams (Below). Please let us know what you find. We are interested to see what it is.

So the issue first started with the radio, it began getting really hot and then would just shut down. That went on for a few weeks. When the holidays arrived the car was parked for several days. Upon starting again it wouldnt start, I think jumped the car and let it run for about 15 mins to recharge the battery. It ran fine for about two weeks until this morning it died at a stop light on my wife's way to work. She explained that it started right back up, but I have concerns that this issue may get worse.

Check battery first, then check for codes and fuel pressure.
