Starter Power Dynamics Fueling Your Engine's Performance

The remote trigger presumably uses the battery for its power source, bypassing the ignition switch. Try a voltmeter on the S terminal of the ... If I jump power to solenoid the starter turns the engine fine. Follow the solenoid lead back to the fuse block under hood and it is on a plug with one other ... the starter circuit is battery powers the starting switch which powers the solenoid on the starter which then feeds battery power to the starter ... If the TIPM see's a start request and a P/N signal it will apply power to pin 85 of the starter relay. pin 86 will be grounded by either the ... Try running a heavy enough gauge wire from the starter solenoid relay to the purple wire connection, then try starting. This would rule out a ... Clicking and not starting is usually a low voltage issue from: leaving the lights on, a failing battery, a failing alternator, dirty or loose wire connections. The purple wire going to the solenoid should get power when you turn the key to the start position. Did you check for that? They make dummy relays, but they can end up in heartache. You could find one and it by passes the relay entirely but just plugs in where the ... I'm getting 12V power in every spot on the starter relay except the one going to the trigger wire (with key turned to start). Even pulled the PDC apart and ... The starter solenoid is sometimes called the starter relay, but many cars reserve that name for a separate relay which supplies power to the starter solenoid.
