Where is the starter relay located on a '91 80 Series?

The starter motor and fuses on my Cruiser are tested and ok but there is no power getting to the starter solinoid when the key is turned. To me, it suggests a faulty starter relay or the ignition switch itself. Trouble is - I can't tell which is the starter relay....

There are a couple under the bonnet and about 4 at the drivers feet behind the kick panel. The ones under the bonnet appear to be for the glow system. Does anyone know how to ID the starter solinoid?

Coming from a Toyota tech, it sounds like the starter contacts are worn and time for a starter rebuild. parts are only available from toyota and and not expensive, and labour should be 1.5 hours.

SOURCE: Air Con

The A/C system is designed to remove heat and humidity from the air entering the passenger compartment. The A/C evaporator, located in the HVAC housing, is cooled to temperatures near the freezing point. As warm damp air passes over the fins in the evaporator, moisture in the air condenses to water, dehumidifying the air. Condensation on the evaporator fins reduces the A/C evaporators' ability to absorb heat. During periods of high heat and humidity, an A/C system will be less effective. With the HVAC mode control set to RECIRC, only air from the passenger compartment passes through the A/C evaporator. As the passenger compartment air dehumidifies, A/C performance levels rise.

In addition, some models are equipped with an A/C system air filter. The filter is mounted under the hood in the outside-air intake (cowl, below the windshield) of the HVAC housing. The filter should be checked and replaced at least once every 15, 000 miles and checked if A/C-heater system performance seems lower than expected.

Can't locate power window fuse on my 2008 PT Cruiser. Drivers window stuck down

no separate fuse /relay for switch /motor --possible switch -motor-track problem
tip

My car starter motor does not turn over.

Hi.

If you do not have any power at all, and the dash is not turning on, then check the battery connections, and the connection from battery ground to the engine body.
Also ensure you have tested the battery. Read the voltage across the positive battery terminal and a ground connection on the engine body. It must be around 12.5V
If there is no problem in there , then the problem is the ignition cylinder. The ignition cylinder can be tested reading voltages at its contacts. This in case there is no power at all.

If instead the dash is turning on, but the starter motor does not turn over, then there may be more reasons for the fault.

To start, look for the starter fuse. This is a large fuse, probably a 30 Amps. Look also for a5 or 10 Amp fuse to the ECU/PCM (main car computer module. If any of this fuses has blown, it can cut power to the starter motor.

After testing the fuses, check the starter relay. This is usually located in the fusepanel under the hood, or under the dash. The relay must click when the key is turned. The relay can be tested in fullusing a Volt meter or an Ohm meter.
The starter relay can also be tested swapping it with a relay of the same kind.

Fuses and starter relay are the most common failure when the car dash comes on, but the car does not start.
If this test good, ensure that the anti theft system is not armed (starter should still turn over by the way).

If fuses and relay are good, read volts at starter motor, while machineis cranking. You will need to use Voltmeter on the contacts at theback of the starter motor solenoid. If there are 12 Volts at startermotor, but motor does not turn over, then starter motor or startersolenoid is faulty.

The starter solenoid can be tested using an Ohmmeter at its contact. Ifthe solenoid is bad, reading with multimeter set on impedance, it willhave no continuity (it will read infinite Ohms).

If there is no volt, or volt is much below 12 Volts, then the problemis either the ignition switch located in the steering column, or aproblem concerning wiring from ignition.

The ignition switch can be tested jumping its contact, reading Volts orOhms on its terminals. To access the switch it is necessary to takeapart the steering column.



Regards.

05pt cruiser 2.4turbo no crank no start battery good lights good strong blower motor good power windows good starter relay clicks. Is this a starter problem?

Probably, but before you change it swap starter relay with one of the same number on top. Then with the relay removed probe the terminals with a test light, it shoul light on One terminal if OK Do this, have someone hold the switch in the start position as you tap or sharply hit the starter with a block of wood or a hard plastic mallet if it starts replace the starter, if it doesn't start check the battery cables and if they're good then change starter. I hope this helps. Take care.

My 2005 pt cruiser i was stopped at the light my car died and now no crank no start have replaced the starter crankshaft sensor ignition when i hook up the code reader it tells me no communication

Check for 5 volt reference signal at the TPS - throttle position sensor , could have shorted sensor causing the problem . Do you know what a computer 5 volt ref. signal is ? Video's on youtube . Your engine computer controls the starter motor relay which turns on the starter . Free wiring diagram's here http://www.bbbind.com/free-tsb Enter vehicle info. year , make , model an engine . Under system click on engine ,then under subsystem click on starting . Click the search button then the blue link. Find the starter motor relay in the under hood fuse / relay box , pull it out an look at the bottom , where the pins are . You should see four set's of numbers , 30 , 87 & 85 , 86 . PIn's 30 & 87 are for the power feed to starter , pin 30 should have battery volt if tested with a voltmeter . If you jumped pins 30 & 87 with a piece of wire if the starter is good an battery cable an connections are good the starter would spin the engine over . Just so your not confused , jump where the relay plugs into the fuse box , not the pins of the relay .

5 volt reference

If the 5 volt reference is good , check power an ground circuits to the PCM - engine computer .

If that is good , suggest you take your vehicle to a qualified repair shop for more indepth testing .

Where is the starter relay located on a 94 land cruiser

While I lack specific land cruiser knowledge, the starter relay is usually part of the solenoid that sits on top (usually) of the starter motor on modern cars. The job of this solenoid is to slide the starter bendix gear into engagement with the flywheel and apply power to the starter motor, turning the flywheel and starting the engine. The current requirements of the solenoid are modest, compared with the starter, and I doubt a relay is required to engage the solenoid. This solenoid is actually the starter relay, as well as bendix engager.

If you can trace the large power lead from the starter motor back to the battery and you find no relay inline, then you do not have one.

I have 2000 Dodge Stratus. Every time I try to start the car. Its not making any noise. My boyfriend checked it and he thinks its electrical problems. But he checked the starter motor last night by taking...

Checking the starter separate was a good step. Now that you know it works, start backwards. You'll need a test light for this. Connect the alligator clip to ground and check to see if you have power at the smaller wire that goes to the starter. If you have no power (light doesn't turn on), check to see where your starter relay is located and swap it with one you know works like the horn. If it starts, you have a bad relay. If it doesn't start, you may have a bad ignition switch. Hope this helps. Good luck.

97 isuzu trooper. Starter motor has no power.

Check the battery and cables going to the starter. Weak arc? Possible that the relay needs to be rechecked now. The inertia switch may also be a possibility. Has the car been in a recent fender bender?
