Not for nothing but a few punctuation marks (periods, commas, etc) would help.
This may sound weird, but has happened to me with my 2016 Spark....I'd press the RED Start/Stop button and nothing would happen....no display messages, nada....I tore into the electrics, checked everything, etc.....nothing seemed amiss...Huh? Putting the key on gave me the proper 2 chirps, but pressing the red button gave me nothing...Huh?
So, I started looking at everything with a fine tooth comb, starting at the SS button.....I discovered that the Red soft rubber button had slipped out of it's normal position and was NOT actually pressing the plunger on the switch underneath it. I carefully removed the RED rubber button from the handle (using a blunt pointed wooden stick, like a bamboo skewer blunt end). The rubber button has a recess that sits over the plunger on the switch and needs to be in alignment for the switch plunger to do it's thing......I carefully manipulated the red rubber switch cover back into the handle (WD40 helps) and made sure the switch plunger was seated into the red rubber cover.....worked like a charm....pressing the red rubber button made the ski act properly after that.
