you need to re-do the timing of the ignition system. the other possibility is the ignition is worn out and needs to be replaced.
impala cranking but not starting; replaced fuses, relays, fuel pump and igntion coils.
Yes , the socket is live so you can use the cigarette lighter without starting the Explorer or turning the ignition key to the accessory position
In my daughter's '97 explorer it was several things- hesitation when pulling out, not starting,having a gas smell, and the floorboard over the catalytic convertor gets hot.
A good candidate is The Crankshaft Position (CKP) sensor; a magnetic transducer mounted on the engine block adjacent to a pulse wheel located on the crankshaft. By monitoring the crankshaft mounted pulse wheel, the CKP is the primary sensor for ignition information to the Powertrain Control Module (PCM).
No.Additional explanation:Just make certain that the valve and ignition timing are correct, from there it doesn't matter WHERE the crankshaft is when you try to start the engine.
If your battery is fully charged and the connections are clean and tight, the problem is probably that the contacts in the switch are corroded or worn, meaning your ignition switch will have to be replaced.
That sure sounds like an ignition switch problem... not just the tumblers, the whole switch.
the ignition switch is bad. you have to replace the ignition switch and you will have to have a new key made with it. i just replaced it in my 1992 seville. that will solve your problem.
Probably the alternator is bad. Once the jumper cables are removed, there is no source for ignition if the alternator is bad. Have it tested and replaced if necessary.
Check condition of ignition coil. Replace if bad.
It should come on when you turn on the ignition and then go off after a few seconds. If it does not, then the bulb is burnt out or has been removed.
