This can be due to loose or corroded cables and or connections , and did the car start even at least once after the battery and starter was replaced? If it did you probably need a new alternator or if your handy enough you have the choice of rebuilding the alternator. Many stores offer free alternator testing , I my self have a 96 Taurus and i have had many problems over the years and now I'm at the point where my alternator is bad and i will soon be rebuilding it. If it is none of these issues then there is some thing more serious wrong in which case it needs to go to a mechanic who can determine and fix the issue.

You replaced the starter and battery on a 1994 Ford Taurus but still just clicks and will not start any ideas?

You may have a loose or corroded ground connection. Not just the battery ground but the engine to chassis ground. You may also have a bad battery cable. If you see swelling on any part of the cable, replace it. Make sure the connections are clean and tight. Did you replace the starter solenoid with the starter, or is it a separate item? If the solenoid is separate from the starter, it is probably bad. It is unlikely that the ignition switch is bad, but possible.

Ford Taurus doesn't start only makes click sound when turning ignition?

If it is a continues clicking sound you here it is probably the starter solenoid. This does not mean the solenoid is defective, it means either the battery is low on charge or you have a bad connection from the battery to the starter. Turn the headlights "on" and try to start the engine. If the lights are bright when you are doing this, you probably have a bad connection. If the lights are dim when you turn them "on", check the connections to the battery, if the connections are good, the battery is low on charge. Next, check your battery and charging system.


3.0 96 Ford Taurus wont start replaced the starter and still wont start what do you think it is?

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.


What is the cost to replace a starter in a 04 Ford Taurus?

I just replaced the starter on my 2006 Ford Taurus at 79,000 miles. Auto Zone for their limited lifetime, re-manufactured starter, $139.99 + tax, plus a $50 core refunded when you return the old starter. The car was dead, so it was jacked up to place on ramps for sufficient clearance from below. Total time was about 1.5 hours to replace the starter. The starter bolts can be removed with a 13mm box end, but is easier with a socket and ratchet. The electrical connections take a 13 mm and a 10 mm. The battery terminal requires a 8 mm. You must disconnect the battery!
