I have a 91' nissan sentra stick and it wont start! HELP!?

Question

i drove my car to school and everything was fine. when i was done with class i went to the car and turn the ignition and nothing happen. the battery is only 2 years old and i tried boosting it but the battery was fine. blinkers worked, so did the horn and radio. i press down on the clutch while giving it gas in both neutral and 1st but nothing seems to turn on my car. HELP!

You probably need a starter. Try pushing the car safely at low speed, 25 mph, and pop the clutch with the key on and in gear. It should start. Have the pushing vehicle backoff before you pop the clutch. If it starts, you need a starter. If not check all connections, and fully recharge battery. Check the ignition switch too. Good luck.

yup! push started the car and drove from my school home. but now the only problem is trying 2 find the starter.. i have no clue where it is.

Answer 2

Please look on the floor for strange amber colored plactic pieces. There is a grommet on the clutch pedal that pushes the clutch switch. When the plastic grommet gets old it crumbles. When the clutch switch is not pushed by the grommet the starter is not energized but everything else works. Only about $5.00 at nissan

Answer 3

Starter, loose wire, soelenoid....

Get it to a parts place for a charging system check

Answer 4

If your battery is good you may have a starter problem.

Answer 5

Battery is fine. If it is not cranking at all, you probably have a bad solonoid. it's a $10 part. easy to replace.
