2001 Saturn SL1 Not Starting Sign up here! Search this forum this category all forums for All words Any words Whole Phrase (search options) Auto Repair Home>> Automotive Repair>> Car Troubleshooting CarRepairRatings New User Sep 3, 2009, 10:00 AM Post #1 of 3 (3912 views) 2001 Saturn SL1 Not Starting Sign In Have replaced the battery and starter after 2 weeks of a few no starts. 2 months later it would not start again, did after a boost. All panel displays light up, starter sounds fine, just doesn't start engine up. Any suggestions for cheapest fixes to start with?

Could be poor connections, voltage drop in the cables (unlikely), or an electrical drain in the system. Or, even a bad battery, even though it is fairly new. With the engine running, your voltage should be from 13.6V-14.6V. A fully charged battery will have 13.2V.

You have been warned about the signature twice now...........Please remove it (This post was edited by Hammer Time on Sep 5, 2009, 4:03 AM)   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
