02 MONTE CARLO LS When I turn the key to the ON position, if the turn signals do not flash the starter will not engage.
3.4L or 3.8L not told.
hot wired the starter solenoid you meant (a SOP act that) all techs do. and good input if yes.
when it failed to crank the next act is SCAN the PCM and let it tell you why it blocks cranking
I sure will. OBD2 scan tools any.
we check all fuses next. be a shame if 50 cent ATC fuse is cause.
Battery voltage does not drop below 11vcd cranking, 12.6v is charged (rested voltage)
well if the starter is dead fix that first, and the automatic trans, blocks the cranking , to the starter
if the car has bad PRNDL switch (fails in park) or alram in the cluster is active is it?
blinkers are last, you can still hand signal by law so fix the starter first.
no need to blink if can't drive or worse stranded with dead starter , how fun is that>?
Chevy. (no starter or GEN replacements right? with battery still connected. sure. not done wrong
the starter runs by the CRANK relay.
under hood relay and Logic runs its coil inside said relay via, BCM etc.
PCM crank fuse not blown.at N/M 11 slot.
the key switch at start , sends 12vdc to CRANK FUSE and that goes to PCM.
the PCM is told to crank, the start.
the car has tranny park cable if not calibrated, or bad, park does not happen and PCM sees that
and will not crank the car with P/N switch showing wrong.
4T65t transmission must be fully in to park and not failing P/N switch
not scanning the PCM first you miss all these facts.
if you have the M/T box now is the time to fess up. really.
here is the PCM connection to the A/T box
the signals are GGGG or 0000 volts DC.
if not the PCM block all cranking
if you scanned the PCM you'd already know this.
the PCM is smart to know that ******* codes from the switch must set a DTC error.
as you can see that it is 4 times safer to not to drive over the kids.
amazing no?

Start up g6 gt 2007 alternator smells. Like burning wire
You need to determine where the noise is coming from. Check your power steering fluid and make sure it is full. Remove your serpentine belt and see if the noise goes away, That will let you know if it is coming from the engine or an accessory or pulley bearing. If the noise goes away whith the belt removed, check the alternator bearing and pulley bearings. If the noise is still there whith the belt removed, that means it is either in the engine or transmission.

6 Speed Crafts Riding Lawn Mower LT1000 Why gear shift won't move out of any Speed?
Let's troubleshoot this problem step by step:
Linkage Adjustment:
The issue might be related to the linkage between the shift lever and the transmission. Sometimes, the linkage can become bent, broken, or jammed.
Inspect the linkage carefully. Look for any signs of damage or debris that might be obstructing its movement.
If you find any bent or broken parts, consider repairing or replacing them. Also, ensure that the linkage is properly lubricated according to the user manual.
Purging the Transaxle:
Try purging the transaxle to ensure smooth operation. Follow these steps:
Place the mower on a level surface away from any obstacles.
Turn off the engine and apply the parking brake.
Disengage the transaxle by moving the freewheel control to the disengaged position.
Check for Mechanical Obstructions:
Inspect the area around the gear shift lever and the transmission for any obstructions.
What cause engine light troible codes p0303 and p0302?
What is the make, model, fuel type and engine size of your vehicle? These are both Misfire codes. Cylinder 2 and 3 are not burning fuel correctly. This could be caused by a few different things. It could be bad spark plugs, bad spark plug wires, faulty coil packs or faulty fuel injectors. Please comment below with your vehicle details and I'll try to help you more.

2007 gt g6 all instruments on panel is flashing
A mechanic's scan tool would lbe necessary to check all the modules. The problelm could be either in the wiring or the control modules. There is also the chance the dimmer switch could be turned off or defective. Or, the electrical part of the ignition switch could be problematic. Because of the possibilities, use of the scan tool would seem the route to go.

How to stop traction control from turning itself on?
The traction control uses the braking system to work. If you have repaired the tyre the issue could be with a sensor for the traction control system itself. Do you have any warning lights on the dashboard? Have you had the vehicle plugged into an OBD2 Diagnostic Scanner? This could give Trouble Codes as clues to any possibly faulty sensors causing the issue.
If you have to pay for this service ask at 4 or 5 different places as prices can be VERY different!

Is there a fuse for 1983 electric window
It is adviseable to post brand and model and year of a vehicle to get a better answer. In your 1983 car, if the power window keeps rolling up unexpectedly, there are a few potential reasons for this behavior. And while I can describe what to try, as I don't have brand, model, year information, I cannot point to a service manual for you. You can try googling for that or responding to my query.
Loose or Poor Connection at the Switch:
The most common cause is a loose or poor connection at the window switch. Over time, connectors can become corroded or bent.
Try the following steps:
Pull up the door switches and inspect the connector sockets and pins.
Straighten any bent pins or contacts.
Clean any corrosion or grime from the connectors.
If everything worked before, this should get your windows functioning again.
Faulty Window Switch:
The window switch itself might be faulty. If a specific window goes down but not up, the switch could be the culprit.
Consider replacing the switch if cleaning the connectors doesn't resolve the issue.
Additional Considerations:
Check the child safety lock switch on the driver's door. It might accidentally be engaged, preventing the window from going up.
Inspect the wiring, window motors, and window regulators for any issues.

I have a 2007 uplander and when tempratures drop below freezing lights will start flashing without the key in the ignition switch
potential causes and steps to address this issue:
Electrical Modules Issues:
The flashing lights could be related to issues with the vehicle's electrical modules. These modules control various functions, including lighting.
To diagnose this, I recommend seeking assistance from an auto-electrician who has access to a professional-grade scan tool computer. They can collect data from each module and identify which ones are causing the issue. Common culprits might include the Engine Control Module (ECM) and the Body Control Module (BCM).
Security System Reset:
Sometimes, disconnecting the battery can cause the vehicle's security system to lose its memory. This might lead to unexpected behavior.
To reset the system, follow these steps:
Maintain power to the car: When changing the battery, use a charger or connect wires to the old battery to prevent power loss.
Refer to the reset procedure: You can find detailed instructions in this link or by searching for "2007 Chevy Uplander security reset" online.
Wiring Schematics and Ignition Switch:
If the issue persists, consider checking the wiring schematic for the ignition switch, steering column, and dashboard. Understanding the electrical connections can help pinpoint the problem.
You can find wiring diagrams for the instrument panel here and additional diagrams here.

My 2011 ram 3.6 liter v6 engine has 3 ignition coils w/spark pugs on driver side and just 3 spark plugs on passenger side. What is the cylinder order?
Dodge use a system called a "Lost Spark Ignition". Basically each coil fires two spark plugs on two different cylinders at the same time every time. One firing for the ignition stroke and the during the exhaust stroke on the other cylinder. Simply, a spark fired every other stroke on every cylinder. That means it only needs 3 coil packs on a V6 engine.
Your firing Order is 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6. Cylinder numbers are set as Odds and Evens. Stand with the belts and pulleys nearest to you. The cylinders on the Left side are the Odd numbers and the cylinders on the Right side are the Even Numbers. The cylinder on the LEFT side nearest to you is number 1. The middle one is number 3 and the one furthest away is number 5. The cylinder on the RIGHT side nearest to you is number 2. The middle one is number 4 and the one furthest away is number 6.
