Non stop buzzing when key inserted in my 1997 Dakota. Even when I turn it over it keeps buzzing.
Check your starter and see if it keeps running but not kicking in to start engine. If so you have to get the starter repaired or burn out your battery.

I want to replace the knock sensors on my GMC Sierra 6.5 liter how do I do it?
Just ahead of the starter the knock senser just screws into the side of the block. The problem is it screws into the engine coolant and the coolantr will come out then you remove the old senser. even if you frain the raditor coolant will still be in the engine ( quite alot) and you'll need to catchir in some way. You can get about 2 gallons. The messly way to do it is to ( with the engine cold) loosen the senser till you can turn it by hand. With the new senser in th=your other hand remove the senser and quickly screw the new senser in. You'll almost certainly get coolant on you so be eady, covering your eyes and arms ( glasses and a raincoat) you do it quickly eniugh very little mess will be made. The plug just squeezes and pulls off. Knock sensers seldom fail but the connection and the wires do. Someone replaceing the startercan hit the senser and break it. Don't drop the senser as the fall can break it too.

Ignition problem with 95 carmy
Seems to be a problem with the solenoid on the starter. After the engine starts, and you let the key go to the "run" position, the solenoid is supposed to disengage. If it stays engaged, it keeps the battery to starter contacts engaged. You have to remove the starter to get to the solenoid -- usually it is best to replace both the starter and the solenoid as a unit.

My 2004 Jeep Grand Cherokee started perfectly yesterday morning. After stopping, turning off the car for about 5 minutes it would not start. I had it towed to a repair shop, where it started and all tests...
A definition: cranking is what happens when you turn the key, the starter engages and turns the engine. (term comes from when that was done with a crank that you stuck into the front of the engine to start it, before electric starters were invented) Turning over is the same as cranking. Starting is when the engine actually starts, even if for a brief moment.
Now...if the engine turns when you turn the key it is cranking. Was it doing that? If not, the problem is either in the battery, starter/starter relay or security system (sometimes) or the ignition switch. If it is turning and not starting, then the engine needs to be checked to make sure it has spark at the plugs, and fuel going into it. These problems are different ans some can be easily solved.

Check the shift cable for proper adjustment. Remove the console, put shift selector in N (make sure wheels are blocked), remove lock pin from cable adjuster, check that the hole in the adjuster is perfectly in line with the hole in the shift cable. (there are 2 holes in the end of the shift cable positioned 90degrees apart to allow for 1/4 turn adjustments) If not perfectly aligned, loosen the lock nut on the shift cable and adjust as necessary. Tighten the lock nut and install the lock pin in the adjuster. If the lock pin feels like it's binding when being installed, it's still out of adjustment and must be adjusted again.

Check the ignition switch for proper adjustment and operation. Switch is above the column (attached to it) under the dash...sometimes easier to reach if you drop the column. (don't remove it, just take out the bolts that hold it to the dash)
