your igniter is the least common thing to check if your car wont start. check your fuel pump first. their are three things that can cause it to do that. your fuel, ignition, or your compression. an igniter with run you over 150 dollars. start with the small inexpensive stuff first. buy or rent a fuel pressure gauge and check your pressure. if that's ok then check to see if you have spark from your spark plug wires. if you have spark and fuel then the only thing left is compression. rent a compression kit and check that.

Why would a 1996 Camry not start after replacing the old battery with new one and everything works but car won't start?

We have a 95 Camry and had the same problem when changing our starter, and had to disconnect the battery cables. Check on the floorboard underneath the emergency brake pedal, there may be a small toggle swith. Try flipping the switch, and it should start. The Toyota dealership told us it was what we had to do to ours, and it started afterwards. good luck!


Why would 94 Camry not start or turn over if driven for less than 10 minutes for the first time during the day and then start after couple of hours Would a car alarm have anything to do with it?

Hi, I have had the same problem in two Camry's, it is a faulty/worn ignition switch an easy way to over come this is to fit a cheap relay into the starter circuit external to the starter, this will fix it.
