I have a 2002 subaru impreza wagon sport 2.5 liter. I recently went on vacation and left this car home for a week, came home to it not starting. I mean nothing happens when I put the key in, no lights nothing. My keyless entry clicker also will not work in terms of locking or unlocking the vehicle. I replaced the battery in the keyless entry but no luck. To me it appears I have not been able to disengage the factory alarm and it is not a clicker issue. Could the car not be receiving the signal from the clicker and the alarm is still engaged?

usually after opening the door you can deactivate the alarm by pushing th unlock button or simply insert keyy in ignition and turn it on.

Make SURE your door key, outside in the door... is straight up and down. The security system is protecting the car, it thinks the doors need to be locked. This is sometimes caused by the keyhole not being verticle.

I have two Subarus, a 1990 and a 2000 -- both have systematic doorlock problems. The best suggestion I can give you is to Google Subaru forums, there are several good ones, and by postinfg and looking at archives, you will get answers from people who have had this issue.

50-60 psi is not enough. you want 130+
