Check for the following: Starter solenoid, starter relay, starter fuse, ignition module. These are the things I've heard referenced for this problem in this circumstance. I'm currently battling the same thing, and this is the process I'm going through, based on advice from many many people.
If there is no crank attempt, check the above. Listen for a clicking sound in the relay when you turn the key. It should be a faint click. If none, starter relay could be bad. Check your fuse block to ensure there are no blown fuses running to the starter. After these easy and obvious checks, pull your starter and your battery and drag em down to nearest auto parts store to test them. Through these simple steps, you will have negated the majority of your troubleshooting, in the most cost effective manner possible.
After these, try looking for battery cable corrosion, and faulty or melted wires. Bad grounds can also cause problems. In modern cars, positive power is continuously supplied, and the switches as you activate things simply close the circuit to ground, if a ground is bad in one area, or cables are corroded, it could cause some systems to appear to have failed
make sure the small wire is hook to the post
make sure your wires are correct from the distributor or you will never start
your car is out of gas
check out the starter......
cables and or check for good ground first.
You have something on that is pulling power from the battery. Can be any light on the car. Dome, curtsey, under hood, trunk, glove box, etc. Can also be a relay that is stuck.
Yes, All you have to do is visit a watch shop or Go to Myers, DJ ect to get it cleaned or replaced. Hope this helps you :)
What is a dissy. Do you mean Distributor?
has the gas tank cap been recently replaced????
Check your distributor cap. Mine was cracked and every time it rained the car wouldn't start. We replaced it and the car started every time. I don't think it's a good idea to wet down your engine, though.
?ignition control module/pickup
You will need a second battery in series with the first battery to produce the 24 volts DC. To keep it charged the series connection will have to be manually changed to a parallel connection.
