Car will not start

90LxDroptop · 04-05-2003, 04:28 PM

Heyo everyone. I need some help here. I put my car back together after putting on a 3 g alternator and it won't start. The lights, radio, windows work fine, and i even hear the fuel pump when i turn the key, (not all the way) All I hear is a click when I crank it though. what's wrong!??!?! help!

damn I have the same problem, you can jump the car by putting a battery charger on the starter...hook the positive end to the cable coming from the solenoid and then hook the negative to a ground preferably the frame of the car.

When I figure out the problem i'll let you know.

Here there #1 its probaby your solenoid. its not make the connection go to the starter but you still get juice to the car. you can get them at a autostore for about 10 bucks. if you put that on and thats not the problem then its your starter but if you can start it by the way abesmith69 said then it is you solenoid.
