This is a common ignition problem. Use a DIY test button push start. I would guess that your key ignition is broken like mine. Currently my Z will start with no key and run and drive. I remove the battery cable when parked.
Below it sounds like he has no prior knowledge of the Z cars.
Have you checked the motor isn't seized? Can you turn it over by hand at the pulley?
you may have water in the cyender, remove all spark plugs then turn over engine, you probably have blown head gasket
I normally turn the key and the starter turns the motor... check complete.
check starter motor
The starter motor on a Citrogen Berlingo can be changed by first removing the electrical wires. Remove the three bolts that hold the starter in place. The starter will come out. Reverse the process to install the new starter.
if engine will not turn over, check fuses first. then check battery, starter motor, starter motor solenoid and ignition switch
how to change starter on Hyundai scoupe 1993 12 valve
easiest wat to check a starter is to turn on ignition.then with a screw driver cross the positive lead to starter wire on the starter motor if the starter is good this will turn over the engine if starter is bad it will not if this does tuen over engine , you can then check solenoid and other ignition parts
Typically this signifies that your starter motor has either jammed, or is faulty. To check that it has not jammed, give it a whack on the end with a small hammer, or fairly large wrench. If that does the trick, then the starter motor was jammed, if not, you need a replacement starter motor.
The single click, that you hear when the starter switch is operated, is the solenoid making the high tension connection to the starter motor. If the starter motor doesn't turn over, you will need to check both the battery feed to the solenoid and the feed from the solenoid to the starter motor (this is typically a short length of braided cable). I have known this cable to corrode through. If it has, the easiest remedy, is to replace the entire starter motor.
If you can hear your starter motor turning but not the engine you have some teeth missing on the ring gear. If you can hear nothing, not even the starter motor solenoid clicking into place, you have a connection problem between ignition switch and starter motor.
Starter is the electric motor powered by the battery that turns the crankshaft before the pistons operate. check related link below
Yes, but only if you can crank engine at normal starter speed.
The first thing to do is check the starter relay which is below the motor. If that doesn't work, the starter must be completely removed and replaced.
