bad connection?

You really bought a new(not really) starter from the worst place without any testing?

1. Your new starter could be bad
2. You have a igntion control problem; the key applies switched power to the relay circuit, the main power wire could be loose on the stud, bad battery (loose plate)

NEVER EVER go to Autozone... The faggots at my local autozone will not exchange or do warranty. But when you buy the part they tell you so & so about the warranty. I know many people that work at Advance Auto or Oreilly's that use to work at Autozone. Why? same shit, they didn't like that B.S. & they told me when they turned down the warranty the manager would even pat them on the back & say "Good Job" & most of the workers are cool with that...... FUCK AUTOZONE!!

Oreilly's or NAPA are the best options other than Dealership

never seem to have a problem there. they always replace anything thats doesnt work for me. battery is new. seems like its a bigger problem just got my windshield replace and speedometer went out and now car wont start..ill check to day and see if power is running to the starter

Dose it even click?

Auto or manual ? (Neutral switch / clutch switch )

Check The blue wire (about 14-12 gauge wire) that goes to the starter. the push on tabs can get bent ezly. In that fact make sure that wire isnt broken.

Battery not dead correct.

Do you own a multimeter? Check voltage on starter wire (blue one above with some one holding the key to start).

Check Ground from battery to block - make sure there CLEAN and tight or even broken.

Check power (12+) going from battery to starter.

its manual.. power from battery to starter is good. i own multi meter but dont know how to use it.. was a gift. ground from battery to block is solid..
im gonna have a friend over later today to get a push and see if it starts like that.

its really hard to find the correct wiring cause the owner before me has everything cut and hanging all over the place.. been looking for new harness... almost had one but got sniped at last second of the bid

 

[nthilavan]

so im starting to think my ecu is bad cause everything else seems to check out okay..

 

[jetjock]

The starter will operate without the ECU even being in the car...

Replace the ECU:aigo: Might as well blame the new windshield!

You need to learn how to use the multimeter to diagnose electrical problems, or find someone to do it for you. No other approach is going to work well.
