Think about it,
in the beginning she started fine right?

You take it from here.

Sincerely Jens


Ok here's where I'm at...
First the bad news - Everything works. but the car doesn't start.
Next the good news - I can start the car but I have to apply 12v directly to the starter solenoid.

So it appears that the black and yellow wire that comes off of the starter relay(works like a champ) and conects to the starter solenoid is no longer making the connection.

So here's my question: Is there anything else I should be looking for between the starter relay and the solenoid? or do I just need to replace the wire?

thanks again!
-Mike
