Q:when you turn the key to the start position are the dash lights still all bright?Ī: I was looking at it carefully. During ignition the LED remains off.Īlso I want to clarify something you asked earlier and I replied to. When the car is locked up the security LED is solid red. I went ahead and took the starter off and had it tested at AutoZone out of curiosity. Also when the car is in ignition position the motor side of the solenoid has 12V on it too but no start/turn over. No problem, when the car is in start/ignition position the black wire has 12V on it. I have had to tow the car 4 times this month because of this issue and am getting desperate to find a solution. Any suggestions or help would be so appreciated.

When turning the key over the headlights dim very slightly. The car seems to at it’s own whim work for a few days and then refuse to start for a week and then randomly start for a few days. The shop I have it at said they were looking around and hit some unrelated sensor by accident and now it starts which we all agree is strange. Per the shop they have tested fuses, relays, connections, starter ground, alternator, battery, battery connections and wires, starter (including the solenoid), neutral safety switch, and voltage. I replaced the battery again because the mechanic had had the car a week and the only thing that seemed to start it was a new battery.6 month old battery did have low CCA considering it was 6 months old but the CCA should have still started the car. Showed a bad relay so I replaced it and for 2 days the car started and then no start or turn over. I had a diagnostic on the ignition and electrical system. It ran of one day and then again no crank. The garage that replaced the starter put a new one in just in case it was faulty since it was under warranty. It worked for 5 months and then again would not turn over. I had the battery and the starter replaced, though the battery wasn’t that old. Six months ago the car wouldn’t start, no crank at all when turning the key over but headlights, radio, etc, all worked great.
