    Any mil/check engine lights on the dash? Can also be the hood latch which has a sensor to make sure it is closed. It's not uncommon to see them going bad.

    If you don't have a cel on, its probably the hood latch. Jump the black and purple wire on the harness side and see if it starts. The plug is right in the middle above the radiator.

    Mine did that the other day, it ended up working just fine some hours later after it had going through a normal keyed start cycle.


    I would say it might have gotten confused.
