Starter Question

<< < (4/6) > >>

WTF304:
Could be a improper solenoid ..... not all of them work the same. If it did the same thing with the old one put it back in. you found a burned connection i would trace down those wires all the way from start to finish, you could always re tape the harness afterwards. If you need a diagram i could snap some shots of my book once i return home, but I'm almost 100% positive someone has already posted one .... might do some good to check the threads on here.

Thing is I am not sure about the old one now, it just clicks with the old one BUT, when I thought it was dead I opened it up to see if it was burnt since I was getting a new one and the two little wires looked like they broke but when I put it back together it still gets power to everything and the clicking noise is still there.

Yea I will look at the wiring diagram I have it saved from a previous post.

So sounds like improper solenoid or burnt connection?

WTF304:
If something got burned it's cause the wire wasn't able to hold resistance. ... something drawn way too much juice. And if the circuit was overloaded ..... i could be wrong but check the wires and the components for the starting system, might be something you missed

Good luck

So I find out that the 4 pin that connects to the solenoid that goes to the starter and batter is getting power but when I hit the start button the solenoid is not clicking, only the relay is. So that tells me the starter solenoid is bad?

I'm not able to offer any advise as I have not experienced any starter problems, yet. Knock on wood.
