86020, Car is busted, whats wrong?
Posted by EclipseTenzoR, Feb-15-05 08:44 AM
So just to think my week couldnt get any shittier, I am pulling into my work to see which days I am suspended. Well I pull in go to park and the car wont turn it felt like I had no power steering. Then I realize that my car shut off. GREAT!!!... So the first thing I thought it was my belt because it squeals at high rpms 4500 and up. Nope belt is fine.. Still doesnt want to crank over, all the other electronics are fine, she just doesnt want to crank. Could it be the starter? Could a fuse be the reason for this. What are common problems for our cars. Shit just doesnt want to go rite. I think after its fixed I'm selling because I leave for the Navy in a few months anyway.. So if you want it.. shoot me an offer.

Jump the starter to the battery to see if it engages (assuming your battery is holding a charge).

Run a wire from the possitive terminal to the starter.

Turned out to be a fuse. I also replaced my ground to be safe. I took out the fuse box and checked the connections at the bottom too. I have no idea what I did but it works now. This car pisses me off. Gotta love owning a DSM though.
