On 12/14/2007, I posted a problem about a new starter that would turn over, but there was no spark. The discussion in the thread that followed covered the AMM, and the various sensors. The dealership claimed it was the AMM. They even put it on the invoice. I retrieved it from the dealership without replacing the AMM, and then I had it towed to an independent garage that did solve the problem. It turns out it was the starter motor itself. It was causing interference with the car's computer, disrupting the ignition timing. The independent garage put another starter motor in (a different brand of course), and that solved the problem.

Thanks to KlausC and Fixitxxx for replying to my post. Sorry I took so long to reply. Life has been very busy.
