Laern about bad conections1.There is a starter relay in the engine compartment that connects the battery +12 volts to the starter when you turn the key to the start position. The shift selector has to be in neutral or park.

2. If you can't hear the relay "thunk" then you have to trace the connections from the ignition switch, thru the transmission park and neutral switch and to that relay. 3. If the relay "thunks"(meaning it is working) - then you must check the battery cable connection on the starter, relay and battery. A voltmeter is helpful here and an assistant to turn the key for starting while you read the voltage. Loose connections are 90% of all problems. A blacken, burnt looking connection or wire means it overheated because of a loose connection.fix it!

Check tightnees on all the 12 volt connection.

Dead starter?


Your starter keeps shorting out no wires are touching and kills the battery when trying to start What could be the reason for the starter shorting or grounding out?

If you have just replaced this starter then you probably have it hooked up incorrectly. If it is still the same old starter, then it has shorted out inside and needs to be replaced.

Why wont my 2002 grand am start Starters just makes a funny noise already replaced starter still does the same thing zweeeee sound?

since you have replaced the starter, the mostlikely cause is the flywheel. there are probably a few teeth missing on it. Try turning the engine manually a little and then start the engine. if it starts this is probably the case. if not the fly wheel may still be damaged.

How come I replaced the alternator and battery and starter but my 95 eclipse rs still hesitates to start. But it helps when I press the gas?

The problem isn't your batter or alternator or starter then. Start looking into your fuel management system. Possibly your fuel pump, injectors, etc.
