Re: 86 camaro enable starter relay

Ok thanks tuned performace, ok so my next question, which might be obvious, where do I start looking if I have a voltage drop, or short from the key to the starter ? I hooked up a starter switch and replaced the starter and all that runs fine, but the key won't hardly turn it over, and sometimes there is no reaction at all

It would be low voltage. You might start at neutral safety switch and check c100 condition.

Could even be adjusting the switch or bad ignition switch.

Re: 86 camaro enable starter relay

Ok I have some questions about the neutral safety switch, how can you tell if it's bad ? Or is just an adjustment type deal maybe ?
