1995 Z24 chevy cavalier wont even turn over

1995 Z24 chevy cavalier wont even turn over I have a 1995 Z24 chevy cavalier, I have power to my lights, stereo, and everything else. I turn my key to start the engine, and it clicks twice, and it hums. also, without the key even in the ignition, my alternator is making a quiet buzzing noise.  Obviously the alternator is running to earth inside ,could be a rectifier diode .change alternator and recharge battery not enough power to throw solenoid in on the starter motor because the alternator has drained it .leave car a bit longer and nothing will work .disconnect battery now to stop it draining further and to avoid a possible fire risk.

2004 ion won't start. Lights work. When I turn key don't get series of clicks, get one snap.

 2004 Saturn ion won't start That symptom usually means the solenoid on the starter is bad and no longer is completing the circuit to engage the starter. A new starter will likely solve that issue. A series of rapid clicks would indicate a week battery. You can try repeatedly turning the key to the start position rapidly, sometimes the starter will start working. You can also try tapping the starter while somebody holds the key in the start position, if the starter engages place it.

WHY CAR WON’T START & YOU HEAR A CLICKING NOISE

Image
 Your Car Won't Start & You Hear a Clicking Noise There are many types of clicking noises make sure what type of clicking you hear,when you turn the ignition off to on. CAR WON'T START RAPID CLICKING NOISE. CAR WON'T START ONE CLICK THEN NOTHING. TICKING NOISE IN THE ENGINE WHEN TRYING TO START MY CAR. CAR WON'T START JUST CLICKS BUT BATTERY IS GOOD. CAR WON'T START CLICKING NOISE BUT LIGHTS WORK. COMMON CAUSES Car Clicks When Trying to Start You turn the key in the ignition and find that even though you're ready to take on the day, your car isn't. It won't start and it's making a clicking noise. You would probably be right. That dreaded clicking noise can usually be traced to the battery, and the fix could be as simple as a jump-start or tightening a cable. Just one click, though, probably means the fault lies with the starter motor (more on that later). IF YOU HEAR RAPID CLICKING... IT MIGHT BE A BATTERY OR ALTERNATOR PROBLEM. A rapid clicking ...

JBL WIRING DETAILS FOR CAR

Image
 Jbl amp/ speakers | Lincoln vs Cadillac Forums the JBL system in my vehicle and want to hook up the jbl amp and sub amp. The JBL amp simply plugs into the wiring harnes but where do I connect the yellow and red wires from the sub amp? According to the diagram the yellow is power and always hot but what does "amp power return" mean on the red wire? The Return is your negative. Use a voltmeter and you will see this. For speakers, since the current is basically alternating, the "+" and "-" are for reference to hook all of the speakers up in the same "polarity" so that a drum beat pushes all of the speaker cones in the same direction - outward, for example. If you connect even one speaker in the opposite polarity, it will negate or cancel much of the sound energy from the remaining speakers and the db or sound pressure output of the system will be reduced. BL = Blue N = Natural BK = Black O = Orange BR = Brown PK = Pink DB = Dark Blue P = Purple DG ...

Image
 NISSAN XTERRA EVAP ( VAPOR CANISTER) LOCATION  Replacing the canister and valve is simple, just disconnect hoses, remove bolts and reconnect. Just make sure to mark all the hoses before disconnecting, and that the valve "O" ring is in place. NISSAN EVAP LOCATION for 2000 NISSAN ALTIMA  It is in the rear of the vehicle. just look under the rear trunk area under the car. ON 1998 NISSAN ALTIMA  it Is located behind the l/r wheel. It you can remove the bolts on the canister to remove the control motor. Use a small screwdriver to move the plunger which sometimes get stuck. You can also use some jumper wires to hook it up to the battery to check the plunger operation. Also blow out the hose lines you see in the area. My light came on because a line was blocked from a moth nest. ON 2000 NISSAN FRONTIER IT is located over the spare tire area , the reason for replacement of the canister is that valve is bolted to the canister .

eclipse has the green car with a key flashing and car will not start

 green car with a key flashing and car will not start This issue was asked by one of our customer What is the light on the dashboard that shows a car on an… what is the green light on the dashboard that shows a green car on an Mitsubishi Eclipse 2002 ? I went to get some food and turned off then about 10 minutes later tried to started and it wouldn't go, there is good battery and and a full tank of gas and oil and everything ! The solution for this issue is as follows: The green light on the dash is the immobilizer light. This is indicating a malfunction in the immobilizer system which will prevent the engine from starting. As long as that light comes on, the immobilizer system is in protected mode and your fuel injectors will not work (preventing the engine from starting). Did anything change from the last time you drove the car? Did you use a different key, or have another vehicles key on the key ring? Do you have any electronics near the steering wheel area (navigation, cell pho...

How Does Odometer Works?

CAR ODOMETER WORKING POROCESS  The odometer is a device that informs the user on the miles traveled by a particular vehicle. An odometer is designed in two types, mechanical and electronic. The readout of the mechanical odometer uses 6 rolling disks with numbers 1 through 9. Electronic odometers give you a digital readout of the mileage. Digital odometers are usually part of a larger digital display panel in newer vehicles, odometer displays are usually under the speedometer. When your odometer ceases to work, most people assume they must replace the unit, which can get quite expensive. However, you can repair an odometer fairly easily. The odometer stops working because the gear within the odometer has worn out. You'll need no special tools to do this, but you must know what to watch out for or you could permanently damage the speedometer that is housed in the same gauge as the odometer. Don't worry about messing with the car's recorded mileage when you repair an odometer;...

How the airbag safety system works in car?

 WORKING OF CAR AIRBAG SYSTEM Important: if an air bag warning light is illuminated while driving the air bag safety system has been disabled and will not activate in the event of an accident. The center of the steering wheel contains the airbag inflation module, which contains the nylon airbag and inflation unit. In case of an accident, an electrical signal is sent to the system that releases gas through a hole located behind the airbag inflation, which immediately fills the bag. The electric signal is passed through the coil assembly located on the steering column beneath the inflation module. Air bags aren't generally considered to be within the realm of the typical do-it-yourselfer (and rightly so) but of course, if you've got the right tools and manuals, anything is possible. A typical air bag system consists of several sensors located at various places within a car's structure along with the air bag itself. All cars today have two front air bags but their application ...

How Does Power Door Locks Work?

 WORKING OF CAR POWER DOOR LOCKS Power locks or electric locks allow the doors of a vehicle to be locked or unlocked automatically. A keyless entry remote control using a key fob can enable a user to activate the door locks from a short range outside the vehicle. The basic system components include: lock actuator, switches, wiring and a circuit breaker. Voltage is sent to the actuator by using a control switch which is connected to the 12 volt power source of the car through a circuit breaker.There are only a few main components of a power door lock system. Inside the car door, approximately behind the exterior door handle, is a metal latch that is the actual component that keeps the car door shut. A metal rod protruding from the bottom of the latch is connected to an actuator, which is a small motor that moves the latch up and down. Another metal rod protruding from the top of the latch is connected to the door lock button that sticks up at the top of the door. The exterior door h...

How Does a Convertible Top Work?

 What is a convertible top? Convertible tops are a type of vehicle top that folds, or retracts. They are usually soft, but recently, some vehicles have been manufactured with hard tops that fold down and can be concealed. However, these hard tops are not known as convertibles. Instead, they are called retractable hardtops because their frames are usually made out of steel. A convertible top is usually made from canvas or vinyl and fits over a steel, rigid plastic or aluminum frame. When convertible cars were first manufactured, they initially were made with only two doors. This holds true today. The production of convertibles spiked between the 1950s and 1970s and used to be available with only a plastic rear window. These days, tops are more durable, and a heated glass window has replaced the plastic window in many convertible models. However, quite a few convertibles still do come with the plastic rear window. A convertible car is a type of automobile which has a retracting or fo...
