Sign up here!   Email This Post Auto Repair Home>> Automotive Repair>> Automotive Wiring and Electrical pjames New User Jul 27, 2006, 9:15 PM Post #1 of 3 (2903 views) 89 chevy p/u starter problem......... Sign In On my 89 chevy pick up, 350, auto, the starter will not turn over, it is getting fire from the battery, and the starter checks to be good. Is there a fuse or device which would prevent the starter from kicking in? (I have tried 2 starters with same results) DanD Veteran / Moderator Jul 28, 2006, 7:31 AM Post #2 of 3 (2897 views) Re: 89 chevy p/u starter problem......... Sign In These years of Chey trucks I believed used a mechanical neutral safety switch; in other words if the gear shifter isn’t in park or neutral the keys will not turn all the way to the start position. That also means that if the keys turn all the way to the start position there should be power at the S terminal of the starter solenoid. Tell us what you find and we’ll go to the next step in testing this circuit. Here’s a diagram of how the starter is wired. Dan.

Sign In There is fire from battery to starter post, but no fire to S terminal when switch is turned to start. It has a device on the block just above the oil pan that a wire which is bundled with the wire that goes on the S terminal attaches to. I did not know what it was for, thought it might (if bad) not allow fire to S post.   Email This Post   Automotive Repair     Auto Body Repair and Refinishing     Heating or AC Issues     Electrical and Wiring     Brake Systems     Car Stereo Repair Advice     General Discussions     Car Making Funny Noises     Engine Fault Codes     Engine Troubles     Exhaust Systems     Steering and Suspension     Transmission Troubles     Tricks of the Trade Automotive World     General Discussions     Antique Car Talk     Car Shows and Events     The Bargin Bin     Motor Vehicle Inspection     Car Care Tips     Traffic Tickets     Gasoline, Motor Oils, Concept Cars and Engines     Auto Insurance, Financing, Leases, Warranties Truck Repair     General Discussions     Truck Engine Repair     Truck Suspension Repair Motorcycle Repair     General Discussions     Motorcycle Engine Repair CarJunky     Open Posting     Board FAQ's     New Board Suggestions
