Driving along on cruise control 73 mph doing nothing driving straight and level, and car quit. Just stopped running with no warning at all. Got over to side of road - dreaded triangle with exclamation. It cranks over fine, no odd noises cranking, but would not fire. I checked fuses like fuel pump, engine controls and all good. Looked under hood for any wires disconnected or loose, and tubing likewise. Car also had a chance to cool down and no difference. Had to call for haul which insurance paid most of a 70-mile haul I had to shell out 68 so that was not too bad to get it and me home at least, but of course now I have at home a non-working car.
I realize anything is speculation without some code but it looks like I may have to buy one (code reader) - however maybe with all the experience here in this BB, there is something you all may suggest that I can check or try that I didn't think of, before I go spending money on something perhaps not needed.
