SOURCE: need to bypass ignition switch on nissan sentra

it should be underneath your car in between the firewall and the engine. Now you don't want to supply direct power to your starter because you'll end up frying it. However to just start the car once you've located the starter, get a long screwdriver with a plastic handle and connect the two wires with the screwdriver.

As for a long term fix, without investing the money to replace the necessary parts. You will need to attach a wire that can handle 12v to both wires on your starter separately. Then connect the other ends of both wires to a switch that can handle 12v, and mount that in your car somewhere. Then whenever you need to start your car just flip the switch on until the car starts then once it is started flip it back off.
I know this sounds like a lot but it is very doable with about $5 and a little bit of time.

Turn key to crank position and only once in a while.has new battery and starter ,wires on starter are good.

When the vehicle doesn't start, you will need to check the purple wire at the starter solenoid for power when the key is held in the crank position. If there is power during this procedure, the starter will be defective. If no power, possible ignition switch... neutral safety switch..starter relay ( if equipped ) or wiring problem

Ignition problem

Check if the small wire on the starter has power with the key held in crank position. If battery voltage there, either bad battery cables or connections, or the starter solenoid has a malfunction. If no power when key held in start, it could be the safety switch (a clutch interlock switch on manual transmissions, or a park/neutral switch on automatics). You may need a wiring diagram to see the start circuit from ignition switch to the starter solenoid-some have a start relay in that circuit.

I bought a new starter for my 1983 k5 blazer because the old one went out. When i first installed it, it engaged, but after trying to shim it a few times, it stopped engaging. i hooked up jumper cables to...

Hang up the coat hanger and buy a test light or voltmeter. You need to find where power is lost between the key switch's start wire coming out of the ignition switch and ending at the starter solenoid. Since you can short the starter to work, there must be no power at the solenoid with the key held in start. You can backprobe the ignition switch connector and see if power is on the start wire with the key held in crank. If good, switch is working. Now, test the neutral safety switch in the same way, key held in crank, should have power in to switch, and gear in park, should have power out. If good so far, next would be the starter relay. You may need a wiring diagram from a repair manual to scope out the starting circuit. Be methodical and follow the circuit to the starter solenoid. The small purple wire at the solenoid should have power to it when the key is in crank.

I don't know what is up with the shims, but you should only use the same shims that the old starter had.

My 92 lincoln town car will not start i have replaced the starter, the neutral safety switch and the battery but when i turn key nothing happens but can jump starter and will crank

Yes there is a starter relay in the wiring diagram.
The yellow and lite blue wire goes from the starter solenoid to the relay. There is a yellow wire from the relay to a 30amp fuse. The key switch powers thru the neutral safety switch and then powers the relay on.

When you push the start button nothing happens it has power going to the starter relay from the switch

Now, you need to check to see if power is going from the starter relay to the solenoid of the starter. Look on the end of the starter just above the 5-sided plate on the end of the solenoid and you'll see a single wire plugged onto the starter. Unplug this wire and connect either a volt meter or test light to the wire. Turn the ignition switch on and press the start button. You should have battery voltage at this wire when you press the button. If not, the relay needs to be replaced. If you do have voltage to this point and the starter does nothing, something is wrong with the starter.

Good Luck

I have a 95 chevy lumina 3.1 liter car. When I turn the key, the all the light work but nothing happens when turning the key to the start position. The battery, starter, and solenoid are all fine. I...

There is a fuse from the ignition switch. There is also a fusible link. Below is a wiring diagram that you can look at and it has the wire colors as well. This I hope will help you narrow down your power loss to the solenoid. If you need anymore wiring diagrams for your vehicle I have them all and you are free to email me at [email protected] with what you need. No cost, Being nice cause it's Sunday....LOL Anyway, I hope this helps you and good luck. Here's your diagram

Problem with a 2000 chevy blazer not starting

Have replaced starter, alternator , ignition wiring, neutral safety starter switch, still happens ??????? Do you know how to do automotive electrical testing ? Not guessing an replacing parts . Not starting ??? How ? when you turn the key to start does the starter motor engage an spin the engine ? Or when you turn the key to start nothing happens ? A no crank no start or a cranks no start . Plus you shoud learn how the system works before trying to diagnose .

Turn the ignition key and nothing happens. turn it

when it won't start, use a test light on the solenoid wire (the small gauge wire) in the start position, you should have voltage. Also check your shift linkage to make sure the shift cable isn't keeping it from going into park position. try it in neutral position as well... that's a clue to a trans selector switch

1997 la sabre will not start

Connect a voltmeter to the battery while trying to crank the engine. Is there a drop in voltage or does it stay at ~12v? If the battery voltage dropped two or more volts while trying to start there is either not enough current to the starter from the battery or the starter might be bad. Not uncommon to get a bad starter out of the box. But if there is no change in voltage level nothing is loading the battery which suggests there is no power to the starter solenoid. Now you are going to need to get to the starter solenoid and see if you have power on the ignition wire while again trying to crank the engine. If there is no power the easiest thing to check is the ignition fuse. If the ignition fuse is okay then you have an open circuit somewhere. Does your ignition key have a resistor built into the shank of the key or is it just a standard key? If yes, sometimes the anti-theft wire harness running through the columb can fatigue over time and break. When this happens your anti-theft system will not close the ignition circuit to provide power to the starter solenoid courtesy of the body control module (BCM). On the other hand if you don't have anti-theft you might just have a bad ignition switch on the steering column.
