I was driving in the left lane, all of a sudden my sound system dies. Ok. Monsoons are temperamental. Airbag light comes on. Now I'm curious. All of a sudden my car kicks into limp mode, no turbo, and I'm losing RPMs... but the tach is stuck at 3K and my speedometer at 80, all my gauges are frozen.
throw on my blinkers, move into the breakdown lane (at this point I'm going 40, gauges still stuck)
So I check the engine bay. All good. Make sure the battery terminals are secure. Yep. My car still has battery power but the starter isn't going, let alone catching
Who knows. Could be a fuel problem, it was running really rich at start up. This is the first time its hit limp mode since before I cleaned my IAC

Does it crank? If so does it sound like the engine is free spinning? Does it have about 105k on the odo? Could it be the timing belt
