1997 Mercury Grand Marquis - Page 3 Questions & Answers
My car is not starting just a cluck near the starter and thats it.
Disconnect the big cable that runs from the starter relay to the starter on the relay end. Then get a voltmeter and ground one end and then put the positive end on the big relay terminal that you disconnected the starter cable from. Get inside your car and turn your ignition switch to the start position. The voltmeter should show that voltage is being sent to the starter.
If voltage is being sent through the big terminal going to the starter, the starter is bad. There are no other parts between the big cable of the starter and the solenoid.
Often a couple of taps or hits on the round case of the starter can wake it up for a few last starts.
Although the car is older, some parts offer a Lifetime warranty for a few dollars more. $5 or $10 more for never having to pay for a starter for that car again can save you money.

Putting aftermarket radio in 1997 ford Mercury grand marquis but wire color doesn't match up... what colors do I use for speakers and battery and ground
Get your self a D or C battery fully charge. Set aside the cables that you think it goes to the speakers. Now grab a pair of cables that you think it goes to one speaker, it don't matter if it's from, back, right or left, we are going to figure that out with the battery. Grab on of the cable, if you think the cable goes to the positive, connect the cable to positive (battery) and the other one just tap the bottom of the battery, you should hear a thump sound. Now you know to which speaker those cable belong to, but you need to be sure which is negative and which is positive. For that, take out the door carpet, or wherever the speaker's at, and expose the speaker, try again with the battery, if the thump sound makes the speaker go in, you need to swap the cables, if it goes out, you have them correct. Best of luck.
