Died while driving, changed starter and battery and still nothing

We are wondering if there is a kill switch as we have had this problem with another vehicle and that was the problem. There is no actual alarm system but there is a panic button on our key pad that makes an alarm go off. If there is a kill switch, where would we find it or what is the formula? What else could be causing this problem if not? Thanks!

Check your alternator, it may have gone bad and its draining your battery.

Loncin 50cc atvGot from buddy. New battery fully charged. Nothing happens when I try to start it. It's dead. Lights come on. Seems like a kill switch issue or something of that nature. I have secured

Can you check for continuity from the starter switch to the starter solenoid? There can be a break in the wire between there if it doesn't have some sort of anti-theft feature built in. You might also be able to run a remote starter switch to the starter solenoid to make sure you don't have a faulty starter.

You may have a bad alternator. Car died while driving, either gas or fire. if you know about MAFS your should know how to check starter function by jumping solenoid to large post of battery. Check for 12V at the large post on starter. Then try to jump the two connections. If car cranks, I would check ignition circuit for faults.

Re: 2005 Kia Rio Wagon. Driving down the highway, car just decided to stop working. Will not start again. Have replaced the starter with a brand new starter still not working. All you can hear is

Well, to begin with, the LAST thing I would replace if a vehicle died going down the highway is the starter. What caused the engine to die? It certainly was not the starter!
If the starter will not crank the engine over, you probably have a dead battery. If your battery went dead while driving the vehicle down the road, you most likely have a bad alternator. However, it is really hard to say without actually being able to see the car.

Car just died after putting new starter

When you put the new starter in, you didn't put one of the cables back on the post. It probably grounded itself enough to start and run, then moved by vibration, or a pothole, or gravity, and killed the motor. As for the arcing battery.... are you sure you didn't attach the jumper cables to the wrong posts?
