Car Is Not Cranky . . . . SO I AM !!!!!!

Make sure the starter is well grounded, then use a voltmeter or test light to probe the wire going to the solenoid power input.

Make the wire long enuff to bring into the cockpit.

Now, when you try to crank, but there is no click, is there power?

If yes, the solenoid is bad.


Happy Racing !

Re: Ignition problem?

mine did this at one point intermentantly, I eventually broke down and changed the lock switch and keys. Went years without a problem until recently. Does the security light come on?
