Won't start. Replaced starter and starter relay to no avail. Pulled column and cleaned ingnition switch and surrounding electronics and checked for any loose wiring. Car started for about 2 days and now won't start with same clean and check. Ambient temp outside is about 40F. Head lamps and dash lights seem to function like normal and I hear the fuel pump. Don't want to keep throwing parts at it. I'm very broke right now, sorry. Please help ! Thank you, Michael Baldwin

Does the vehicle crank and not start or does it not crank at all?

I suspect since you replaced the starter it does not start.

Since this is what it seems like, we need to start with checking power at the starter to find out if we are getting 12 volts on both wires.

If the relay is new as well and you are not getting voltage on the trigger wire, then I suspect you have a position sensor issue but let's start with this info and go from there.

Please run through this and let me know what questions you have.

Thanks
