find the three pin connector on the inner fire wall on the drivers side in the fuse box area. it`s in plain sight. remove the plug. turn the ignition switch to the run position. jump from the positive battery terminol to the center pin on connector.
u need to replace the starter solenoid
Bypass and find out, If the starter works then solenoid is bad. Take hot wire from solenoid and jump to starter on some cares but you will need a wiring diagram to know if yours can be done that way. As a rule, remote solenoids almost never go out since they are away from engine heat. Many shops will also test them for a small fee. Look for auto electrical shops.
if it tries to start with out a keu when you hook up the jumper cables, you have a bad starter solenoid.
A low or dead battery will have this effect. There is enough juice in the battery to activate the solenoid in the starter (causing the clicking sound), but not enough to turn over the engine. A jump start or a replacement battery may be needed if the battery is no longer capable of holding enough of a charge even when being jumped.
If the starter is clicking, that's a good sign. Replace the battery and make sure you didn't have a drain on it. This problem could be caused by several things, but a weak battery or bad starter solenoid would be at the top of my list of things to check.
Starter solenoid? Jump the trigger wire (small) and the cable that runs to the starter
Flat battery or sticky starter motor / solenoid - try re-charging battery or get a jump start Flat battery or sticky starter motor / solenoid - try re-charging battery or get a jump start
You can turn the key to the "run" position, and jump across the solenoid with a screwdriver or something metal. If the starter turns, you have a bad solenoid.
Jump the starter solenoid Take jumper wire from Battery + to trigger wire to starter (mounted on top of starter)
jump out the solenoid or relay. This will close the circuit for the high current.
The starter relay or solenoid is probably the problem.
If the battery tests good and battery cables are clean and tight at both ends and you are jumping the starter solenoid correctly with no results, you probably have a bad starter/solenoid.
If the starter is bad no. Check battery, starter and solenoid to be sure which is bad.
Jumper wire from coil + to battery+ Jump starter solenoid - Jump small trigger wire to starter connection
Starter Ignition Neutral switch
Using the starter solenoid jump the small middle terminal with the starter terminal at the rear of the solenoid
Jump the wires on the starter solenoid - Jumper wire connected the large cable running to the starter and the smaller "trigger" wire The solenoid in most vehicles today is located ON the starter. If you attempt the aforementioned answer, BE CAREFUL.
