    Computer, sensors, and all are sensitive to voltage, so make sure your battery is in good shape and connections clean.

    Also, if it's super cold I'll turn the headlights on for a bit to get the juice in the battery flowing. Worked in my dodge.

    there was a whole discussion on click and clack about turning on the lights to get the battery to work. I can't really comment to its effectiveness, but I think they discounted its value as a myth.
