SOURCE: 12 volt supply problem 1987 chevrolet r30

i ran into EXACTLY the same problem on an 86. i kept forkin' around and finally went direct to the starter and bingo it started. to this day it is still working and never happened again. i have absolutely no idea why. by the way--that was almost 2 years ago. might also be corrosion between the battery cable @ the starter, and the wires that go to the waring harness.

SOURCE: Need a wiring diagram/picture for the start

There should be one wire with a small eyelet connector on it, this is the starter field wire from the ignition switch and it should be connected to the small terminal on the starter solenoid marked "S" (this wire is usually purple, but it can also be red or pink)

All of the other wires to the starter including any fusible links, will have a larger eyelet connector on them, and they will all connect together with the battery cable, to the large upper terminal on the starter solenoid, sometimes marked "BAT".

How do i check to see if my fusible link is any good in my 1988 oldsmobile royale 88

If you are mechanically inclined, check for power at the starter when turning key to start. Where is your fusible link attached ? Try by passing starter solenoid, if engine turns over, you may have a bad starter.

Starter would not work replaced,the wire on the old starter was burned off,one thats on the unit not cable,still nothing ,do not hear the solenoid click in

The wires and the fusible links at the starter should be checked, and you will know a bad fusible link wire when you find one, because they will stretch like a rubber-band, and repair any fusible link wire that you find that are burned out.

If you can not find any problem with the wiring or fusible links at the starter, then check the "start" fuse for the starter field wire, (if it has one it will usually be located out in the fuse/relay junction box) also the starter field wire should be connected to the "S" terminal on the starter solenoid and it will be "hot" or have power to it only when the key is in the "start" position, and if the field wire to the starter is the wire that burned up then the ignition switch itself might have been damaged.

Seems like at starter problem..

If, when the switch is turned, the starter motor does not operate at all but the solenoid clicks, the problem lies with either the battery, the main solenoid contacts, or the starter motor. If, as you say, the battery is good, and fully charged, that would mean that is was either the solenoid contacts or the starter motor.
If the solenoid plunger cannot be heard (no click), the battery is bad, the fusible link is burned, or the solenoid itself is defective. Once again, if the battery is good, it would be the fusible link, or the solenoid. The fusible link (battery fuse) is in the engine compartment fuse block, fuse number 1, 80A.
If you want to test the circuit, you can run a fairly heavy INSULATED wire between your pos. battery post and the SMALL terminal on the solenoid (just touch the end to the solenoid). If the starter turns, you may have a ignition switch, neutral start switch, or some other wiring problem.
Double check the battery terminals to make sure that you are getting good contact.
Hope this is helpful.

My 1999 Ford F250 Light Duty Truck has a corroded cable that goes to the starter. I replaced the ground cable that goes from the battery to the starter and it still will not turn over. I left the original...

the ground cable is just that. as long as it connects from the battery to the engine and another cable from the engine to body or the battery to the body, thats OK.. Now the 2 positive cables goes from battery to the starter solenoid on the fender and another from the battery to the starter itself. there is a red wire (smaller) that goes from the solenoid to the stater .....there is a fusible link at the starter solenoid, make sure that the solenoid has power. if no power ..then the fuse links may be burned out. if you connect battery power to the small terminal on the solenoid the starter should spin the engine over IF all other wires are ok.
