My van will not start, but we’ll go to run mode, and everything will turn on electronically. It is a push button start. I checked both batteries and they are good. I changed the starter thinking that was it and it did not fix it. There was a recent misfire code in cylinder one. I changed the spark plug and coil for cylinder one a week ago when it gave me that code.

These cars have had problem with the push button switch itself or the starter relay, but to be sure there is a guide to help, and I have included the wiring diagrams so you can see how the system works and how to change out the switch and relay location as well.
