Maybe its overheating, or the computer thinks it is...

Re: Wont Start

Couple questions, Is it cranking slowly or fairly fast?
Do the lights dim, stay bright, or go out when cranking?
Is there gas in the tank?
Does your security light come on or blink?

The fuel filter may be clogged, the battery could be run down, temperature sensor could be bad. There are many things that can prevent your car from starting.

When you go to crank, just observe as many things as possible with what the lights on the dash do, any abnormal sounds, or feel abnormalities in the gas pedal.

Post here with any more info so we can narrow down your issue/s
