I found out the answer to my own question: because the battery was almost dead. It probably didn't even need a new starter. check the voltage on your battery before diagnosing a bad starter. sheesh, what's wrong with me.

Where would a starter be in a 1990 Chevy Lumina?
I just replaced the starter motor on my 1990 4 cylinder engine Chevy Lumina. The starter is located in front of the oil pan. It was reachable and can be seen from under the front of the car a little to the right. You have to remove a three bolt attached plastic part by the oil pan to be able to get to one of the starter motor bolts. Good luck.

How can you check a starter on a '93 Chevy Lumina?
If you can't get it to start with a good battery and you can't see any bad wires, etc. - you need to remove it and take it to a parts store to be checked. (it probably makes sense to just replace it while it's off.) at $200.00 for the starter i would make real sure you need one also check all the starter relays, and your ign switch. ANSWER: Just buy a new starter!

What causes a 1993 buick lesabre not to start after replacing the starter?
My suggestion is to make sure that you have a good connection between your starter and your battery. Is the starter even functioning? If not, it is probably a bad starter, a bad battery, a bad fusible link for the starter, a blown fuse, or just a bad connection.

What do I do next on my 1996 Ford Explorer that will not start but has a new starter and solenoid and starter relay and a good battery?
Check all fuses to include those in engine bay, then all connections of battery cables - not just the ones at the battery posts. Start using a little logic and find out what's wrong before replacing more parts. Power directly to the low side of the solenoid should force the starter. If that works but the starter doesn't work with the keyswitch, it might just be the neutral lockout.
