Sign In When my 2005 Pontiac Montana sits in the parking lot while we go shopping, while its engine stews in its own heat and the heat from the sun, no power goes to the starter when I turn the key. I have to open the hood and wait for 5 to 15 minutes, before the starter gets power and starts the engine. The van was repaired after a front-end collision before being sold to me, and I can see splices in the wiring that goes to the starter solenoid, but we had no problems like this for the first 4 years of ownership. Have you got any suggestions that I can pass on to a local mechanic?

Sign In Are those splices just crimp connections? A good splice should be soldered with shrink wrap over the splice. Yes I suspect marginal splice work is at fault but can only guess with a collision history that was hard enough to hurt wiring or worse break it!

Sign In    any competent tech should be able to check for loose connections and determine if the starter is failing due to heat soak.
