Ok i am assuming the starter will (ALWAYS engage and rotate the engine) Now this problem sounds like if you keep cranking the engine over it eventually fires up. So if this is so, i would start looking into your fuel pressure regulator. The fuel is not staying pressurized in the system making the fuel pump start over each time filling the fuel lines. Part one, if you cant remember when you changed the fuel filter do it now anyway period! it will make it easier on the fuel pump with less load on it. Part two, The fuel pressure regulator holds fuel against the injectors to be dumped into the cylinders at the turn of a key this is why they crank so fast. if the listed above does not fix your problem, which i think it will. Definitely get back to me and, if the starter motor is the issue same applies.

Check for an ecu fuse, efi fuse maybe, find out why no hot wire on that B+. All fuses good? There's possibly another power wire to the computer, not always just one.If fuses are good and still no power on the B+, check that the fuse block is getting power to it. Use a test light or multi meter.I would have thought the codes were probably erased, but did you find any useful ones?

You say Wheel Nuts which leads me to believe you mean the Tire and Rim won't come off. If you have the tire off the ground and all the Lug Nuts removed it may just be sticking a bit. Use a rubber mallet if you have one and hit the tire near where it contacts the rim using a lot of force. Make sure you have the nuts removed first. DO NOT USE A regular hammer to do this or you will damage your rim. If you only have a regular hammer make sure you hit the tire not the RIM. Sometimes the Rims will stick over time. If you are actaully talking about the Brake Disc, make sure you have removed the Brake Cylinders and use a rubber mallet to gently work them off.

they drain inbetween the bulkhead of your car. no access is available to get to that. if the evaporator case is totally removed you can run a new hose for it although they are usually short in most cases for the bulkhead is totally sealed watertight

While cranking the engine over check for spark, then after cranking over for 5 Sec. or so remove a plug or two and check for gas in the cylinders. This will help you narrow it down.

Thanks,

Could very well be a security system failure telling the computer that the vehicle is being stolen. I had the same issue with my jeep and there was a wire i had to ground out to bypass the alarm system. look into that

There is a switch located just above the left rear brake light, peal bake the trunk liner and you will see it. It says manual/auto, switch it back to auto and the top should work. You probably just bumped it as my brother in law did, no convertible for over a year...good thing he lives in Seattle.

take a wire from the positive side of the battery and tap it on the positive connection of the starter. If it turns over then you are good if not could be the starter itself. WebRepcurrentVotenoRatingnoWeight
