check your oil level. if its too low, it wont engage. also might wanna check the coolant.

Not unless I had the car in front of me doing it. Since I cant diag cars over the internet with my majical powers all I can do is try to help you fix it yourself. That starts with diagnosing it yourself.

I have seen this problem before and it usually needs diagnosis. Its never the same part. Sometimes it isnt a part at all.
