lastresort576 Posted May 2, 2011 Share Posted May 2, 2011 What's happening? So quick question for you guys... So when I try to start the car nothing is happening except for the rad fan turning on and the starter is not clicking. So I manually tried to start the car with an 8-g wire from the battery to the solenoid, and the starter is now clicking and intermittently turning over. However when I do this the transmission ground is arc'ing out...Which needs to stop. Any idea what the cause is? I'm quite lost and getting annoyed. Starter & battery are brand spanking new as well. I've cleaned up the thermostat ground so it's nice and shiny too. Thanks a bunch! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cmgogo Posted May 3, 2011 Share Posted May 3, 2011 well look at the 2 places it arcing. There is resistance between those 2 points. Fix it. Odds are you need to: Replace the wire and leads Clean the area better Ensure continuity between the T-Stat housing and the block Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
