I turn the key and does nothing. the locks work and power windows work. but doesn't try to crank over at all. I got the battery tested it is good and fully charged. I got it grouned to the alumiun head or isn't that a good ground. there is a secondary postive wire coming from the battery terminal wear does that go. does anyone new what could be wrong.

 

Try applying +12V to where the purple wire connects to the starter (use a fairly heavy wire). The starter should engage if it's good and your battery cable and connections are good.

 

then if it does u might be in the same situation where i am at. starter switch or the nuetral safety switch. mine i know has to be the starter switch. location on that is what i am looking for so far almost torn the whole steering wheel assembly apart.

 

I don't think aluminum conducts electricity>>> bad ground???? Positive cable from bat. goes to your starter...secondary+ wire to the fuse box?????

 

yea i have mine to the start and the neg to the engine block. mine started since i had it but it smoked last week burnt wire under teh dash and now it wont' owrk. fuses are good power to everything changed starter and still no turn on crank. but if i jump the start it works. and fires right up????? sounds like the ignition starter switche??? right

 

Turn on your lights before you try to turn the key. Do they dim/go out? if they don't you probably have a bad ignition switch. Does the key feel the same as it did before? On one of my previous Camaro's it was easier turning to the "Start" position and turned out to just be that the rod was "pushing" down the whole switch. Turned out the switch was loose on the column.

 

hmm that i might have to chk lol even tho i am already in the steering column but i believe no dimm at all.

 

Well ta da it was the starter switch and if i had pictures OMG it was a smoker lol. bad terminal burns bad. on a note i might put a fuse on that yellow wire :P. would that help it if it takes to much current? so it will pop instead of the ign switch.

 

hey. still haven't been able to get my car to crank over yet. i turn the key and nothing happens. the lights work power locks work the back hatch work. but still nothing. i don't think the secondary postive goes to the fuses box. it looks like it was bolted to something. so not sure what is wrong with it. also there is a plug coming from the upper plemun. where is that suppose to plug in at.

 

hey does anyone know what the sensor on the upper plenum goes to. where does it plug in to. what does that sensor control.
