Hey guys!
I’m having a no start issue on my 1992.
I have been daily driving it for about a month with no issues out of line with a 30 year old car.
Yesterday my wife and I took a trip to the Bay Area. It’s about a 100 miles there and 100 miles back. No issues on the road or even over the hills of the altamont.
Got home about midnight-
Woke up this morning to go grab some coffee to revive ourselves and just got absolutely nothing when I cranked it up.
I tried:
The battery- tests normal
Tried jumping with a portable charger
And our other car both to the posts and to the frame still nothing.
The posts- cleaned and tightened all connections.
Efi relay- didn’t look blown out, but don’t have a spare. I’ve heard on here they go bad in heat and it’s been above 90 here for the last week or so. Even 100+ at times.
Tapping- on the starter from underneath the car & poking it with a broom handle from the top.
The connection seemed good visually. For both connections to the starter.
The fusible links are relatively new- within 2 years of minimal driving. Used to only drive it on weekends.
I tried jumping the port and the CEL just kept flashing.
It is illuminated like normal in the on position.
When I crank I don’t hear a loud click like others have mentioned in threads I looked up. I saw some links to a flow chart of what to check in the 3FE but all the links were broken.
If anyone has ideas or can point me in the right direction I would be grateful.
