What ever came out of this?? any updates?

 

hey i had this same problem its fuse on the bat. so i just bypassed it the dealership said it would be fine

 

definetly sounds like a starter to me mate.....and as said tryin to jump start a evo in 3-4th just wont work...2nd only!!

 

Fuses are safety mechanisms. If you blew a fuse, there's a good reason for it, and usually it will mean that you have a short in the car somewhere. If it's the battery fuse that blew, you definitely don't want to bypass it, as your short would be in the main battery line. I wouldn't want to see anyone short a circuit that has an 80A fuse on it. I would imagine that the result would be melted insulation at the least, or a fire in the worst case scenario.

If the solenoid clicked, then there is power. As the original poster already said, the dash lights, radio, etc. work fine. I would check all connections to the starter.

 

An 80 amp short would be sufficient to weld some sh*t together.

 

any updates???

 

any updates?

 

im having the same problem.. turned the crank on my car by hand and it spins freely, new starter, new plugs,new battery, all it does is click when i turn it over.. wont turn over at all just clicks

any ideas??????

 

IF you push start a car and the drive wheels lock up when the clutch is popped,you have a seized motor.Especially when the starter wont turn the motor and the car is only 2-4 yrs old.


(Opps didnt see how old the first post was)

 

Check the connections to the starter, trace them back to the harness and battery, make sure there is good continuity and no cuts or shorts...

And did you check all the fuses and fuseable links?

 

will check today... any other options????

 

fuses are good... anything else????????
