Need more info, do you have lights? radio work? if everything seems to be functioning but nothing happens when you turn the key, i would say its your VATS system, very easy to bypass, just look it up on TGO

SOURCE: I need to replace the starter on a 1992 Chevrolet

Remove neg battery cable. Then lift car up. Mark with tape or marker the wires connecting to starter/ solenoid. Then remove the two cables.
Then remove two bolts from starter and drop down or pull up by exhaust manifold if you cannot drop down through bottom.

I have a 1991 rs camaro 305 . I just replaced the starter motor when i went to hook back up the battery the starter motor began to spin. Need some help?

sounds as if you have connected the heavy battery wire to the wrong side of the solenoid, there are two large wires on the solenoid one goes into the starter and the other is from the battery. A smaller wire is needed for energising the solenoid. When you turn the key the solenoid is energized becoming an electromagnet, this does two things, 1 engages with the engine 2 connects the two heavy poles to spin the starter and start the engine .
Check you have refitted the wires correctly

1989 toyota camry starter cranks with a high whinning sound but no spark to start engine

TOYOTA IS NOTORIOUSLY KNOWN FOR BAD STARTERS!!!! OPEN THE HOOD AND HAVE SOMEONE CRANK THE STARTER WHILE YOU LOOK TO SEE IF THE ENGINE IS ROTATES, WHEN THE STARTER IS ON.

IF THE ENGINE TURNS VERY SLOWLY OR NOT AT ALL, THE ENGINE IS FINE. BUT, THE STARTER HAS A BAD SOLENOID AND IT'S NOT ENGAGING THE FLYWHEEL. THERE FOR IT'S SPINNING AT VERY HIGH SPEED MAKING A LOUD HI-PITCH WHINNING. BUY A NEW SOLENOID AND FIX IT YOURSELF!!! BUT TOYOTA WON'T SELLL YOU JUST A SOLENOID BECAUSE THEIR GREEDY!!! A NEW STARTER FROM TOYOTA IS AROUND $350.00. AT AUTOZONE AROUND $100.00 WITH A LIFETIME WARRANTY! BUT IF THE SOLENOID SWITCH IS BAD IT COST AROUND $250.00 AT TOYOTA, & $99.00 AT AUTOZONE. ALSO CHECK THE THE STARTER RELAY, COST ABOUT $150.00 AT TOYOTA AND AROUND $40.00 AT AUTOZONE. PULL THE STARTER OUT AND GET IT TESTED AT AUTOZONE...( FREE!!!)
" I'M ABOUT 100% SURE YOU STARTER IS BAD!!!!" GOOD-LUCK!!!

1989 Camaro RS starting problems. Will start when it wants to.Sometimes it will not do anything at all. But when it turns over, running very smooth. And then when I tunr it off,it will not start again....

if it starts when cold, but will not start hot, then it is a bad fuel injection system. if it is unpredictably intermittant, with no particular pattern, it may be corrosion on the battery cables/terminals (in need of cleaning), or your starter is beginning to fail.

I have a 1990 Camaro RS with automatic transmission. The guy I bought it from said the engine is a AcDelco rebuilt 350 V8 from a 1989 Blazer. There was a Acdelco plate on the engine. I replaced the...

I would think the starter you need would be the 90 camaro one, and not the 89 blazer, as you still are dealing with a camaro tranny and flex plate. Inspect your ring gear closely when you have the starter off, and make sure the teeth aren't buggered. Let me know what you find. Good luck.

How do i reprogram my ignition switch n my 92 camaro rs.i will not start ,brand new starter,ignition switch. new fuses.all the power comes on.

You can't. I just replaced mine on my 92 Camaro and it's a pain in the ***. You can only install the ignition switch one way, then you have to make sure that the rod coming off the tumbler (where your key goes) is in the right spot.
