2015 ta2 won t crank

[Stubbygda]

i went to take my 2015 ta2 out for a drive and it wouldn’t crank. it’s been a few weeks since i ran it. i leave it on battery tender and it showed good. car seems to turn over fine but doesn’t fire. to me it sounded like no fuel so u checked all the fuses associated with the fuel also swapped the pump relay just in case nothing helped. it is the original battery and i know these cars are battery sensitive could it still be battery even if turning over ok?? any other ideas to check before i have to tow it to dealer??
any ideas appreciated.

Try jumping it might not have enough voltage to stat?

Leave the battery off of the tender for 1 hour, then test voltage. If it is low (say less than 12.2v) it may be battery. Next step, use a 12 volt jumper box or another car (initially with the engine off) to see if that helps.

I have seen many cases where battery is so marginal that it can turn starter, but not have enough "juice" to supply coils, injectors, etc.

ok tried voltage looked good 12.4. so jumped it without truck running and with truck running no difference. it turns over great but its not firing like no spark or no fuel. any other ideas or things to check?? i really dont want to have it towed to dealer.

Does it smell like gas after cranking for a bit?

If yes, it's spark. If no, it's probably fuel.

just an update on my issue. after checking fuses and relay for fuel pump i found nothing i had it towed to dealer. after a day they found that the fuel pump relay was bad. not sure when i swapped it out it didn’t fix it but seems to have fixed the issue for now. this is the second relay that has gone bad. the ac blower relay was replaced a few months ago. has anyone else had any relay issues?? typically it is very unusual for a relay to go bad much less two. i did notice that the part has been superseded but that could be for a lot of reasons probably cost or availability but maybe reliability??

For the record my starter relay also went bad. I also thought that was strange given the infrequency of relays to fail. I guess the heat gets to them (even though I have the titanium heat shield)

That fuse box does get pretty hot even with a heat shield so who knows. The relay for the blower motor went out on mine so I have a box of relays in the trunk now.
