1994 940 volvo will not crank once engine is shut off. There is

No clicking sound once key is turned to start position. the lights work, horn blows. the starter is about 3 years old. I can only crank it when we short out the starter

    i have more or less the same problem. stops while on gear, and wouldn´t start imediatly. got to wait a minute or so, till i hear the fuel pump working when i turn the key on. is it the rekay? which one? got to change it?

  • ab_m24 May 04, 2009

    what should i do exactlly? just take it off, or replace it for a new one! to my understanding this is not the fuel pump relay. i tried all the relays one by one by turning the ignition key to position one. when i moved out the black double relay situated on the center, i could hear the sound of the petrol pump when turning on the key. but when i took off a double white one on the very right of the console, than the petrol pump stoped sounding. it had a date printed on it.
    ive had the car to the garage this morning but the guy i spoke with didn´t have a clue.

My car will not start it makes no noise when I turn the key the horn works the lights come on but the motor will not start what is the problem

Several possibilities Darrell. Make sure shift is in park (if an automatic) - wiggle the shift lever while trying to crank engine. If manual transmission, make sure clutch pedal is depressed.
You said lights work but have someone see if they dim when trying to crank engine. A low batt will blow horn or turn light s on but if batt is low the lights will dim a lot when trying to crank.

Engine will not turnover

If you are hearing clicks when you turn the key and if you know where the starter is, get under there and tap it with a hammer. Sounds archaic but when they start to go bad they stick. When you turn the key, the starter acts like the old hand crank you see in movies to spin the engine. When you release the key the starter believes it did its job and goes dormant. Anyway, if you hear clicks when you turn the key and if it starts after hitting it that is likely your problem.

Turn on ignition turn key to start position and engine is not cranking over

run the fault codes to check cam/crank position sensor. Check that the cam shaft is turning (broken timing belt /chain) check immobiliser operation

Starter not turning over?
Controlled by integrated starter selenoid. SOMETIMES, tapping the starter will cause the selenoid to operate.
Assume that voltage (12Vdc) is getting to the starter when the key is in the start position (take 2 people and a voltmeter to check it).

My 1996 Jeep Cherokee has problems starting. sometimes it sounds as if it is going to start but it shuts down. other times you can keep cranking but it doesn't start. the fuel pump works fine. what...

this could be the crank position or cam position sensors. Also antitheft device if installed

If check engine light is on do a self test.

turn key off-on, off-on, off-on. the check engine light will blink out codes in pairs of numbers; 5-5 being the end of the test. Or the codes will display on a digital odometer. Do not start the car when doing the test- just turn key until the dash lights come on then one click back for "off".

Google your findings, if any, for possible solutions.

How do I turn off service engine light on 1988 volvo 740 gle

One way that always works is to disconnect the battery for at least ten minutes. If the cause of the check engine light turning on in the first place is not fixed, then the light will come on again pretty quickly after starting the car.
To reset your service light here are the steps.

1. Get in your car and shut the door.
2. Put your key in the ignition
3. Turn your ignition key to position 1
4. Push in your Odometer reset button and hold it in while holding it move the ignition key to position 2 while holding down the odometer reset button.
5. After couple of seconds of holding the button down and the key in position 2 your service light will start to blink once that happens let go of the reset button and start the car.
