OK I looked at the neg ground battery cable and it had a nice white foamy layer of corrosion at the ground bolt. The battery has an overflow tube that when overfilled with distilled water (which it was) it will drip conveniently over the neg connection....so this eventually broke up the connectioness of the wire.

So I cleaned it up...checked the battery levels, put in a new neg cable and secured all connections...haven't had any trouble since.

My guess is becouse of the bad connection, the EWS system would prevent the car from starting.

BTW my starter was replaced two years ago with a spanking brand new bosch unit.
