try lifting up on the shifter and turning the key it maybe a bad Neutral safety switch
It is on the top of the starter. The solanoid is what the starter wires hook to.
the ground wire running from the starter solinoid to the starter sounds to be bad
Sounds like a failed starter.
I replaced the starter but it makes a grinding nose how do i fix it
just had the same thing turns out the automatic car starter went bad and fried the starter replaced it same thing the ignition switch also went bad replaced that too all set now
Headlights, radio, ignition, and other elec accessories. Also turns starter to start vehicle but they replenish battery when running via alternator
Interesting?? I had my starter and battery replaced on my 2002 Saturn VUE and within a few months my low beams ands daytime running lights went out. Dealer says the post in the fuse block is burnt and the entire block needs to be replaced at a cost of over $600.
You Should Buy The Starter Pack Because You Will Have All The accessories
Assuming it started before the starter was replaced, the starter and/or starter wiring are not installed correctly.
I would suspect a defective ignition switch. I would be more inclined to believe it was the starter relay/solenoid thingy i used to have an old amc eagle. and it did same thing starter wouldn't disengage. I replaced the solenoid/starter relay and it worked fine after that.
What is your question
Never disconnect a battery while an engine is running!
