'05 GP base, 3.8l non SC engine
I was driving with no sign of problem today until about 4:30 PM when I parked and left for a local event. When I came back to my car at 9:30, I noticed that it cranks but it won't turn over and the DIC is displaying "Reduced Engine Power" and check engine light. No other message.
Fuel wasn't the problem, I filled up back on Wednesday and ran 180 miles without any issue. I rechecked the connector (and found what looks like thin red plastic straw next to air filter) but it won't turn over. I waited few minutes, and again after 10 minutes. It still won't turn over, it's like there's no spark in all of the spark plugs or that I am completely out of gas.
Since it was already dark outside and the only tool I had was a flashlight, I had to leave my car and get a ride home. Going to come back tomorrow morning with my Dad's truck and a dolly to tow if the car still won't start.
What could cause what seemed like a perfectly normal problem-free driving go right to dead just sitting there?
