gotta be something electrical!!

[bad7mgte]

still having lots of problems starting my car!! Whenever it's cold out it seems like I have to jump it....the battery is never dead, it's brand new and everything electrical works BUT THE IGNITION!! for some reason, i can hold the key cranked over or give it gas or whatever, but it never cranks until it gets that extra "jump" from a running car. I have replaced the battery twice in the last 6mos.....different brands, I know they were all three good! Starter doesn't even go click click click.

I don't think it could be the cold start injector could it? doesn't that only mess with the fuel?
it's gotta be something electrical...in the ignition circuit, but I don't have a clue where to start looking....got any ideas

Try coil, ignitor, plug, wire even check grounds.

have replaced plugs, wires, checked grounds.....checked ohms/resistance in coils....

Doesn't crank over at all? No click from the relay and or solenoid? Try starter relay, starter solenoid, replace main starter lead, then head into trace mode for the wiring back to the ignition switch. Relay and solenoid or main positive lead are the likely candidates, in that order.

Fuel and spark are not the issue if the starter is not turning.

is it an auto or standard? 7MGTE correct? sometimes the wiring on the starter is loose, dirty, corroded, etc.. check that first

test your starter with a test light.. the black wire on your starter goes right to the battery, there should always be power..

there should be a black/blue wire on your starter solonoid, have someone put a test light on this, while you try to turn the car over.. If theres power to that light while cranking, but the car doesnt turn over, Your starter is at fault..

If there is no power at the solonoid while cranking, check your ignition switch, starter relay, or clutch start switch or nuetral safety switch..
