Starter not working engine not cranking over?

Good morning,

It is possible but needs to be verified.

I attached a wiring diagram for you to view to check for powers going to the starter.

These guides can help us fix it

and

Please run down these guides and report back.

Check the fuse circled for power on both sides with the key in the start position. Check out the diagrams (Below). Please let us know what happens.

You need a test light. You can get it at a parts store for under 10.

Test for power on both sides.

You are welcome.

Always glad to help.

Most vehicles now are using a battery cable that is bolted to the under-hood fuse box. Start by looking there to see if the nut has worked loose. That seems to be a fairly common problem.

Paul:
It could be a number of things. Have you checked the basics like making sure the battery terminals are clean and tight?

Try this, Paul. The next time it happens, I need to to go to the relay box under the hood and locate the EEC relay. That is the electronic engine control relay. They are known to go bad and act like you described. Switch it with another relay in the box that has the same part number and see if it will start.

Let me know what you find.

Let me know if that fixes it.

Check items in pic and starter relay for corrosion on prongs, use dielectric compound on them then have it scanned for codes to see if range selection switch on trans is bad. Auto parts does for free.

DESCRIPTION
Passive Anti-Theft System (PATS) is designed to prevent driveaway thefts. The system is passive in that it does not require any activity from the user. System uses radio frequency identification technology to verify if proper key is being used to attempt to start the vehicle.
During each starting sequence, the encoded ignition key is interrogated by vehicle anti-theft electronics. If the key's identification code is programmed into anti-theft system, vehicle is capable of starting. If key's identification code is incorrect or missing, vehicle is prevented from starting.
PATS module communicates with the Powertrain Control Module (PCM) through Module Communication Network (MCN). PCM then determines if engine will be enabled to start. If the PCM prevents vehicle from starting because of PATS, PCM will store a Diagnostic Trouble Code (DTC) in memory.
PATS vehicle protection system consists of these components: PATS module, anti-theft indicator (THEFT) light, PATS transceiver module, encoded ignition key, module communications network and Data Link Connector (DLC).
OPERATION
ANTI-THEFT INDICATOR (THEFT) LIGHT
THEFT indicator light located on right side of instrument cluster is used to prove out system operation status. Under normal operation THEFT indicator light will illuminate for 3 seconds when ignition switch is in RUN or START position, and then turn off. If a problem exists in PATS, THEFT indicator light will flash rapidly or illuminate constantly with ignition switch in RUN or START position.

Could be a bad starter/solenoid. Check for 12 volts at the small wire on the starter with key in crank position. If it has power then the starter needs to be replaced. If none, then get back to me and we will figure out where it stops.
