I have a the car listed above v6 vin Lt. I replaced the starter and then tried to start the car with no luck. Car does not make a sound unless you jump the starter itself. So I changed the fuel pump because I could not hear it come on when I turned the ignition switch on, however I am still having the same issue. I can spin it over directly from the starter but it is like it is not getting any fuel. It will just sit there and spin over and over without starting. Can someone please help me with this issue ASAP? Please I have to have this vehicle fixed as soon as possible so I will have a ride to work and wherever else I need or have to go. Please all answers will be greatly appreciated.

Hello,

The way I understand it is the starter will not work with the key correct? Can I ask if the security light is flashing? Here is a guide that will help walk us through the starter issue and the wiring diagram for the starter so you can see how it works:

Check the # 10 fuse for power under the hood.

Check out the diagrams (below). Please let us know what you find. We are interested to see what it is.

Cheers, Ken
