I am working on a 94 toyota corolla 1.6 with automatic transmission. It would not start or even crank. I replaced the starter, tightened negative cable, replaced the 100 amp fuse(fusible link) and trying to troubleshoot neutral safety switch but am not sure how to remove it without causing other damage. Thanks.

As long as you are in Neutral or Park disabling the NSS is common and will not harm anything. Just make sure you keep it in Park or Neutral, have the parking brake set and use wheel chocks to prevent the starter from engaging with the trans in gear.
Most of the time it is mounted in the gear select mechanism you will need to remove the cover pins/bolts/clips to access it.

SOURCE: Removing the 100 amp fuse link in a 1994 toyota corolla

the fuse link is bolted in from the two side in the fusebox.you have to un bolt the whole fusebox so you can raise it and if you look at the sides there are two side panels that can be moved down so you can get a socket or spanner on the two bolts apprx 10mm. undo them and raise the fuse out and put the new one in and tighten up the bolts again. hope this helps.

SOURCE: wont start

You could try replacing the two fusible links down by the starter. They look like two black pieces of rubber on the wires. Just cut them out and splice the wires back together. If that's your problem it should start. If you unplug the neutral safety switch from the tranny the car should start if that is the problem. Hope this helps.

SOURCE: 1992 Toyota Camry won't crank

Check the ground cable going from the battery to
alternator, then to chassis. Make sure there is no
rust at the chassis ground wire terminal, and that it
is very tight. The fusible link will be off the alternator
red power cable,usually, but not 100% on that car.
Good luck.

SOURCE: 1998 Toyota Corolla, automatic. I have trouble

  1. I tried to find a
    Toyota Corolla Wiring Diagram 1998 |
    If you go to your library you can look for free. Just not sure of location of of neutral safety switch for your year of car. In the back of motor manual is wire diagrams you will find switch there. Also GEO Prism is the same car.
  2. The last time I worked on a Prism it was a 1997 I found a bad wire connection at the shifter. Took 20 minutes to do repair and no parts.
  3. So I would check the switch in your console. Sometime they stick or a wire comes loose. Sometimes a little WD-40 shot to the switch helps.

1997 toyota corrolla wont move in any gear

If it is a manual transmission then chances are your clutch is worn out and will need to be replaced. If automatic, check to ensure you have the proper level of fluid in the transmission.

  1. Remove the key from the ignition, and remove the battery, do not attempt this with the battery in car.

  3. Look to the rear of the engine, You'll see the top of the starter, loosen and remove the 14mm bolt/nut holding it down below,
  4. Drain the radiator and remove the lower radiator hose. This will let You squeeze the starter around the AC line,
  5. Then install the new starter, the one bolt You removed from the bottom, screw the last 14mm bolt on the starter into the transmission loosely,
  6. Go up top, reinstall the top bolt, tighten this firmly but not all the way,
  7. Go below, tighten the bottom bolt to final spec.
  8. Reattach all the wires, make sure the trigger wire is snapped in fully.
  9. Go up top, firmly firmly tighten to spec the top bolt,

Car was working fine and then the car would not start. Checked the battery and fully charged. Tried to start again and it started. Turned off car and nothing again. Not even a cranking sound!

Depending of the type of car, and the starting system, you could have up to two starter solenoids on your vehicle. These components sent current to the starter during ignition but your problem sounds like the solenoid or even some of the connections throughout the starting system.(Starter motor, Ground strap, Pos+ cable from battery to solenoid.)
