Quick question. This has only happened a few times. After getting in the car I put the foot on the brake and it feels hard and does not feel like normal. The car won?t start. This morning it took 4 goes to get the car started. Thought it might have been the steering lock but did not change anything twisting the wheel. Pressed the button a few times with the foot off the break and it resolved. Also only has occurred first thing in the morning after being parked overnight. Any ideas.

When you push the start button does the aux system turn on?

From memory when I take my foot off the brake it goes into testing car mode.

Sounds like it could be a faulty brake switch.

I remember on my Optima, I can always override that by turning the ignition to the on position (green light) then hold down the push button again for about 10-15 seconds.
