Testing the starter electrical circuits is how to find the problem . Viewing wiring diagrams to see what all is involved in the starting of your vehicle ? Most vehicles have a starter relay that is energized by the PCM/ECM - engine computer . B+ voltage comes from the ignition switch going through the starter relay control side to the PCM - which will ground that circuit turning on the relay sending B+ voltage to the S terminal on the starter solenoid .
Do you know what a automotive relay is an how to test ? How to test for B+ voltage at the starter ? How to use a DVOM - digital volt ohm meter ? Free wiring diagrams here http://www.bbbind.com/free-tsb Enter your vehicle info. year , make , model and engine size. Under system click on engine ,then under subsystem click on charging system . Click the search button then the third blue link , this is the starter electrical circuit . This diagram doesn't show the park neutral safety switch input to the PCM . Speaking of the park neutral switch , put transmission in neutral an see if it starts then , could be the switch is bad .

Timinig mark for 2003 pt cruiser non turbo 2.4

Hi, if it's ignition timing your looking at, it'not adjustable, it's controlled by the ECU, If however it's the cam belt timing, there is a crnk timing mark on the bottom pulley and the cam shafts have markings on theouter rim of the pulleys,these have to line up facing each other in a straight line using the centre bolts as a datum, all 3 marks should be aligned to be correct

Pt wont start or turn over

try to get a jump from a friend and see what happens, does the same, faulty starter, may need replacing, try to use small hammer and tap lightly on the starter couple time and have a friend start the car while you tap lightly on it. check ignition switch where you stick the key in. stick the key in the ignition and turn the key back and forth jiggle and wiggle it and see if your igniting will make contact. do it several time to test and see if its the ignition problems, this part is not cheap to replace.

I changed the battery and still have a no start. Guages light up, then nothing when I turn key to start.

It is important to check teh oil. Low oil means low oil pressure and the car will not start. Try that good luck
