ok now i'm lost
i put my car back together but the starter doesnt seem to want to budge, i can take the positive and touch the other end and it'll spin but it wont when i try the ignition.
Any suggestions?

Re: ok now i'm lost
i took the tranny out to get the pump fixed then put it back together except for the intake then tried to start the car, all the lights and everything work but when i turn the ignition, nothing is happening with the starter.
I'm sure i connected it properly. positive on the solenoid and the negative is tied in with the tranny mount bolt.

Re: ok now i'm lost
could it be the park/neutral safety? i tried starting it in both and nothing. maybe its not recognising it? if thats the case how do i find out? and how to fix it? or could it be something else?

Re: ok now i'm lost
sounds to me like its the 12v coming from the ignition isnt going to the starter
I would guess the neutral safety as well... seeing as the tranny was down... Do you have a multimeter? sounds like Time to test wires. Test for 12v from ignition at starter test continuity on that starter wire Then its time to get into the ignition switch w/ an svx electrical book and do your various checks there. James

My guess is you have not rewired the interlock circuit, or not done it properly. It is possible you do not have power going to the solenoid. You should hear it click in the N and P position. There is also the possibility that you actually have wired it back correctly, and the adjustment is out of whack. There is a cable connected to the selector, if memory serves this has to be in correct alignment so that the starter only gets power in the two "safe" positions. Maybe see if it will start slightly up or down from these positions? Keep your handbrake on while trying it. Here are some diagrams: USA transmission Joe
