It may be possessed by a demon! OR... Does it have a remote car starter installed? It may be faulty.

The ignition switch may be bad. The key goes into the ignition lock. There is usually a rod that goes down to the electrical switch on the steering column. check the electrical switch.

99 vw cabrio trys to start on cold engine but takes many tries before it starts up I have new ignition coil fuel injector flush and fuel filter is this a throttle body issue or what?

There may be a compression problem here. Get a test done, this will check condition of rings and valves.


Ford Bronco won't start Ignition hard to turn if wheel not turned sharply Sounds like it wants to start but doesn't New battery new starter Vehicle died when driving less than 14 tank in vehicle Rebui?

I'm not a Mechanic and I am having the same problem with my Bronco. According to what I have been reading the part in question is the Ignition Lock Cylinder. Sometimes they get dirt in them and just need a little lubrication like WD40. I am going to try this on mine tonight and will let you know how it goes. If this doesn't fix the problem then you will probably have to replace it. my bronco has a stiff key to turn as well, if you were driving one day and your truck died, you could have a clogged fuel filter, or a bad fuel pump $175 new, i replaced my fuel pump by cutting a whole in the floor behind the back seat, wouldn't recommend that unless your confident your not going to cut the tank hoses. also if it trys to fire but wont quite catch and run, maybe new plugs?


What would cause jumper cable to melt when jumping battery after you stop cranking car it actually trys to crank by itself without turning key?

The starter relay or the internal starter relay solenoid contact is closed either by 12 volts still applied to the relay or starter or the contacts have welded themselves together. Welded together sounds good if the starter is shorted and that would cause the cables to overheat also.

1995 nissan240sx wont start I replaced the starter it still wont start unless I push it what could be the cause?

A no start condition can be caused by a bad battery, bad connections on the battery, bad connections on the starter or ground and possibly by a bad neutral safety switch or ignition switch. Use a test light and see if your getting fire to the small wire on the starter when someone trys to start it. If you are, the starter is not working. If you aren't, check the ignition switch and the safety switch.

When i try to start my car the motor don't turn over but starter trys to start it and i have power?

Engine, not motor. And what you're describing could be due to a number of causes. You need ignition, compression, and spark in order for the engine to fire. Check the distributor, spark plug cables, air filter, fuel pump, and fuel pump fuses and/or relays (which you have depends on what the vehicle is).
