It doesnt crank. I took the starter in Advance Auto and it checked ok. It has good ground and battery power. Is there a relay or fuse that I need to check?
This problem occured one day when I was starting it and the key slipped in my hand while i was turning it to start. It was trurning over until it momentarily slipped while i turnng the key.

Hey karmie'
There should be a relay and fuse in the underhood electrical center. There was also an issue with the ignition switches on that vehicle too. Let us know
