I have an olds 98 the starter and solenoid were checked at a shop and are ok there is power to the starter.?

Question

I also checked the ignition switch which is good. The car still won't start. What can be wrong ?

Answer 1

Try the Park/Neutral Switch

Answer 2

There are two powers one directly from the battery all the time, and the other from the ignition switch, through a fusible link to the solenoid. the fusible link will melt with too much amperage to save the wiring and the starter solenoid, just have to splice in a new fusible link about $4. They usually go bad if you have a short, or if the starter is getting old and draws too much current.

Answer 3

Is the Starter turning eng?

Answer 4

if it clicks you could have an engine locked up if it dont click when you hit the key check everything again also check for a voltage drop in the cables...
