Hootnick: The starter shouldn't be too much of a pain.
What you want to do, standing in front of the car, in the center, facing the engine, look straight down. Look for the engine support bracket. Once you find it, look to the left of it and follow it up to the engine, where the engine and transmission meet. Roughly half way up the block, you will see the starter!
It shouldn't be that difficult to get to or replace.
MAKE SURE YOU HAVE A HOT BATTERY, GOOD CONNECTIONS, NOT THOSE ADD-ON AFTER THOUGHT CABLE ENDS WHICH CORRODE! Those are notorious for selling starters and batteries which were perfectly good! Current goes around the outer parameters of the wire, not through the core, consequently, corroded surfaces from bad connections make for poor diagnosis.
Good luck.

Wontstart fuse mayby

The starter relay is a frequent cause of this issue. Here's a link:

Price is ~= $20 bucks. When these relays fail the starter will not operate.

2001 Cavalier will not turn over. All the lights are on but it just wont start. We tried to boost it and still wont go.

i had that problem and it was the pass-lock system...to reset the code i had to turn the ignition to right before it cranked for 10mins turn it off for 6sec (not removing the key) and repeat that two more times and it cranked like a champ, had to do it a few more times with in the month but it eventually stopped.

Put in a new battery, starter clicks, but engine won't turn over. Cleaned all contacts and all connections are tight. Before buying new battery, tried jumping with the old one, almost got it started but...

If the starter makes a click that means that you have current to the starter relay (selenoid) you can replace the starter relay but most of the time are the copper contacts inside that close the circuit to energize the starter foward to start spinning. The contacts are burn bu used

My 98 Monte Carlo won't start. The lights, radio, windows all work, but when I turn the key nothing happens.

check the fuses there is a starter fuse, if not check the starter for power at the small wire if no power could be the relay,if you have power at the small wire its the starter that's bad.

remove black plastic relay cover in plastic underhood fuse box and activate relay9006980.jpg with a very small screwdriver and ignition on. If starts, obviously the starter is fine, if not the starter is indeed bad and needs replacement so hold onto your ankles cuz it's gonna hurt.
