91 park avenue won't turn over |
|
|
Ok boys and girls I just left my 1991 park avenue up at a convenience store
because I pulled up, went inside, and came back out. I tried to start the
car but the car will not turn over at all. It has always run fine. It does
have a security key which I inserted and removed several times. I tired to
move it to neutral position and still nothing. The battery seems to be fine
and all the lights work. I even tried jumping it in case the battery was
low but nothing. Anybody got any ideas?

Check for neutral safety
Jump 12+V to the solenoid on the starter to get it to turn over.
Sometimes a simple PRND21 --> 12DNRP movement will get it to engage.
If no luck on that & there isn't a supplementary security system on
the car you might want to tow it home / to a garage, check the
starter, the wiring, the ignition harness, etc, etc, etc.. |

Probably a broken white wire at the ignition cylinder that goes to the vats
module. This happens more often on tilt columns, especially if you use it
alot like getting in and out and moving it.You would need a new ignition
lock cylinder. A common problem with these. I would turn the key on and
jumper the starter to get it running then if that gets it going, take it to
a shop and have them check the ignition cylinder not switch. |

Could be your key, could also be your battery cables. You have a side
terminal battery, unless you changed it, and if the cables get a bit
loose you will not be able to start the car, and you will not be able
to jump it until you tighten the bolts. I had the same problem on my
88 PA, and that is what was wrong.

Try a different key. If the chip goes bad on one, it will act that way. Replace
the key, if so.
