Terry, I haven't had a chance to check all the leads, but it does seem as tho there is no power getting to the starter when the ignition is turned. I can't figure out why it wouldn't get power tho, as if the solenoid gets power it clicks(this happens), starter earthed to engine....The only place i could be losing power is the contacts on the solenoid right? that's where teh starter should get it's power from isn't it?
Just thinking out loud. If i hook the negative (on the multimeter) upto the battery negative and positive to starter maybe that will tell me the engine isn't grounding correctly?? When everything is hooked up(battery etc..) i can put the multimeter on the starter and positive on battery and get power, that tells me it's earthing doesn't it? Either something is obstructing the pin from pushing out far enough to hit the solenoid contacts or the contacts are stuffed? Thanks very much for asking in the sr20transplants group. cheers, Adam ----- Original Message ----- From: "Terry Rudd" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> To: <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Sent: Tuesday, September 10, 2002 1:19 AM Subject: RE: starte motor question > Adam, > > How'd you go with the leads etc. > > The SR's didn't have too much in the way of suggestions as what a suitable > replacement other than the obvious (SR20DE) for you so far - I guess there > haven't been too many SR20DET starters blow yet to warrant investigation on > what's a good donor. > > regards > Terry > > -----Original Message----- > From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] > [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]]On Behalf Of Adam Jackson > Sent: Sunday, 8 September 2002 10:46 PM > To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] > Subject: Re: starte motor question > > > yup the engine is fine, i've turned it over by hand a number of times > > i've found the problem, it is as David suspected, the starter is getting no > power when the ignition is turned. > > gonna have to follow the wires when i get time and figure out what the > problem is > > cheers, > Adam > > --membersozdat------------------------------------------------------- OZDAT Mailing List Please Note:- Send (un)subscribe requests to [EMAIL PROTECTED] Send submissions to [EMAIL PROTECTED] No unauthorised redistribution of this email http://www.ozdat.com/ozdatonline/index.htm http://www.ozdat.com/ozdatonline/listindex.html http://www.mail-archive.com/[email protected]/ ---------------------------------------------------------------------
