Hi guys I need help on my car. The thing is I have a new battery. New starter and new alternator. but the car won't start at all.
let me tell you what happened exactly at all.
So this happened after i have a new battery and new starter. Then few weeks later I moved my car to the front of the house to remove the decals for my car. then when I finished I moved the car again to where it was originally parked. Then later on my Key's got stuck in the ignition and I tried doing everything that's been said on youtube. "wiggle your steering wheel" etc. so the only thing that I had to do was put some oil in it then I removed it forcefully. And thats it, before I leave my car I always remove some relays because I'm scared my car will get stolen and nobody wants that. but tbh i didn't really know if removing the relays would help so ya in the morning I tried to put back my key again so to see if it would get stuck again but it didnt and then I tried to open the car to see if it would start again it did crank but I was really not sure (i am stupid) so I tried it again but the car won't crank anymore (I dont have my relays in I'm just making sure if the car would start even without relays) so ya I thought it was the alternator so I did replace it but it still not cranking at all. the only way to start the car is to push it. nothing else so im not really sure guys. and the worst part I don't know anything about fixing cars yet I bought a rotary. I hope someone could help me.

How about some basic info like what car do you have and how is it equipped?
What relays did you remove?
Have you returned the relays to the proper location (photos really help)

welcome to the board.

what year Rx-7 do you have?

first, you probably need to get a copy of the FSM for your car. Foxed.ca

which relays did you remove and are you sure you replaced them to their correct slots?

So it is a mazda rx7 1986 non turbo. and yes I put a number on them before i removed it the first time so yea basically all the relays are on the right spot

so my next idea is for you to re-check the wiring on the starter itself. if you're getting power everywhere else, but it will only start if you push-start it, then check the starter.

you may want to bench-test it if your wiring turns out to be okay, because i have heard of "new" starters being bad on quite a few occasions.

thank you for the help I did check the wirings but decided to remove the starter and get it check. and it was the starter all along it was dead .
