1. Could be a bad ground from battery negative to engine block. High resistance at the ground connection can allow the solenoid enough current to click, but not enough to turn over the starter. Suggest checking all grounds. 2. If starter is not shimmed properly for pinion engagement with the flywheel ring gear, pinion may not be able to engage and turn. good luck

Does a 1990 Chevy Silverado have a starter relay you have replaced the starter and the switch located on the column under the dash and cannot find a problem with fuses or wires?

The starter relay is integrated into the starter. Have you checked the neutral lockout switch? If the neutral lockout switch is faulty or adjusted wrong the starter will never engage. It could also be that the starter wires are cross-connected. Using a volt meter, make sure you are getting voltage to the starter bendix when you attempt to start the engine. If not, start backtracking to the keyswitch to see where you DO have voltage.


1993 E350 and you have replaced the starter solenoid the starter and the battery and the starter will not disengage after starting What could cause this?

Most commonly, it's the starter or the starter was wired wrong when it was installed. More rarely, it can also be the keyswitch or even a bad gear on the flex-plate.
