Doesn't start... sometimes

Does it crank? or do you just turn the key and get nothing?
Noticed your from ohio, you should check out ohiosupras.org
i hear a click. all power lights come on. battery is full and charged. its something with my stock alarm. i turn key and nothing happens. starter is good and all conections are too
yea, that should be your alarm, close your doors and lock in and un-lock it from the passenger side and try it again.86supra;1187117 said:

my black supra never did this, but if the alarm went off i had to turn on the ignition. Then step outside the car and lock/then unlock the car. But i did it from the driver side. If the passenger door is jammed it could be the cause of problem. That would be the first place to check!
:]

yea ive tried the lock and unlock thing on driver door. it doesnt ever work. as far as the clicking noise it sounds like it coming from the drivers side somewhere. i just wanna pull the fuse and never deal wit it again. b ut wheres the fuse or relay?
If you take offthe driver side panel, you can locate the wire going to the lock cylinder. It's been a while, but I believe there is one wire there. The lock cylinder has a switch on the backside of it, yours may be broken or corroded. You should be able to ground this wire and trick the alarm into being shut off. That's what I did, and it's still bypassed.
I had the same problem to where all the lights would come on and the dash lights aswell.what it was the 12volt connector to the starter came off and had to jack the car up just to reconnect it.for some reason i've bought 2 starters off ebay and everyone of them had that clip attached to the starter was broken.so i used alittle crazy glue.it started everytime.67rstbkt;1188231 said:

Well if you are hearing the starter click and not just the relay then its the starter or the wires. Try to connect a power directly to the stater signal wire and see if the starter works then. Mine will do this some times and if I touch the wire the starter bumps and then there is no problem for a week or 2.
