I just finished swapping in another 12a about a week ago. I cant seem to get the starter to engage. I turn the key and nothing... Not even a click. Any Ideas??

Thanks, Ivan

 

fuses, wiring harness plugged into the solenoid on the starter?

 

starters bad???.......try giving it a good whack with a hammer.

 

did you Put the Ground from the Wiring harness to your Engine/bell housing??..and Did you put the big Positive wire To the Starter?..(I know that when I swapped Clutches,my first Crank was WTF?..Nothing!..I missed the Ground wire to the engine!)..

 

Ya I got the ground wire to the engine/bell housing.. And ya I got the big positive connected to the starter... The little red wire goes to the little metal piece that stick out the solenoid correct? I dont think the starter is bad because 2 weeks ago when I had the old motor in it worked just fine... Anyone know of a link to some kind of wiring diagram on the starter... This is the first time I have ever had a problem with wiring up the starter.

 

yo that is the same thing thats going on my car even when i put a new starter!!!!but if i play with my ignition switch it cranks...but i think its not my ignition***well i hope its not! Try puting a push button starter..i might do that...but it seems fine! its become an off/on thing^^

 

The spade terminal at the very top of the solenoid should have a wire about 10ga black with a yellow stripe attached to it.

Does the instrument lights come on when you turn the key on?

 

check your fuses, and your fusible links. but have you even checked for voltage down there?
