I need some help!


I have a 2001 Sable with 82,000 miles on it. It runs great, smooth and looks great too.


The problem is that when the temperature and humidity are up, I sometimes have a problem starting the car. I have no problem when the temperature is cooler. When I start the car, I get nothing. No attempt to crank,nothing. Sometimes it will start in neutral, but not park. Most of the time it will not sdtart in erither. All of the electrical items work, lights, radio, etc.


The starter has been rebuilt, there is a new starter solenoid, new neutral safety switch and a new relay. My local mechanic doesn’t have a clue and the local dealer, after three days with no diagnostic error codes showing up, re-did the computer, but yet I still have the problem.
When it doesn’t start, I open the hood, the car cools off and it will start. Most times in neutral.

I’m looking for any ideas and/or suggestions.


Thanks
