Make sure that the starter and the baterry are connected correctly. If it still does not work, you should go to a prefecianal meachanec to check it out! You should also check that when you replaced the starter that you did not damage or effect the ignition! for more in fo please e-mail me at punk_pro1@hotmail.com Have you checked the solenoid?
suspect starter relay locate relay and replace temp solution run wire straight to battery from starter make sure in neutral when starting
If it turns over very slowly, check for bad battery and ground connections. It should turn over quickly if you jump start it. If it doesn't, the battery connections are bad and/ or the battery is bad.
The 'click' is probably the sound of the starter solenoid, but if nothing else happens, either the battery is flat, or the starter motor is faulty. -First check battery charge with a meter, charge it if needed. If the battery is good then check the connections at starter, make sure it has a good ground. If still not working , remove the starter and bench test it. -follow procedures in your manual for this.
The starter is located on the passenger side of the car in back of the front tire, trace the battery cable down and you will see the starter. Its held in with two bolts.
bad starter motor can also be that the battery does not have enuff cranking amps for that motor
no power coming to the starter solenoid when you turn the key use a light bulb tester to test the solenoid wire while someone turns the key for you (small wire going onto the top of the starter on its own
* Detach the negative battery cable * Clearly label then disconect the wires from the terminals on the starter motor and solenoid * Remove the mounting bolts and detach the starter
* Detach the negative battery cable * Clearly label then disconect the wires from the terminals on the starter motor and solenoid * Remove the mounting bolts and detach the starter
Check the Battery cable from the starter solenoid down to the starter Ford takes alot of power and if the cable is bad it won't start. also make sure that the starter is not in a bind so that the drive gear is hanging up. hope this helps.
you have the wiring from the 84 caprice which should be a purple wire that goes to the I spot on the starter solinoid then the thick cable that goes from the starter to the battery and dont forget the distributor plug and then the car will start from the ignition
3 things may be wrong, weak battery,try jumping,starter relay may be toasted,or the starter itself my be shot
starter not meshing with fly wheel . you need new starter ,right side of engine two wires three bolts pull negative battery cable first brake on for safety or you have a low battery and its not turning starter fast enough to engage you don't say what kind of noise.
