s13 No start "click" noise and Buzzing sound???? - Zilvia.net Forums | Nissan 240SX (Silvia) and Z (Fairlady) Car Forum

Quiksilvia09 · 01-13-2011, 12:32 AM

Hey guy's

Kinda new to zilvia so dont kill me. :lol:

Anyway's, ever since I Swapped out my Motor to another Ka24de Ive had this problem -Well sorta, I Would click once or twice once in a blue moon-

My Car goes "click" when you try to start the car. It sound's like the Starter engages but not turn over and it has an Odd "buzzing" sound which seem's to be coming from the firewall.

also
One Headlight work but high beams are fine.
and it's the only one that will pop up

My door chime sometime's turns to a clicking sound and my
defroster button light blinks and my Dash light dont work!

Please help!

Oh and it's a Bone Stock 91 Hatchback

S-Nation S13 · 01-13-2011, 07:09 AM

you got a lot going on. my car has the same problem when im trying to start, remove you steering column and find you ignition tumbler, look for the harness that comes right off it there should be. 4 wires solder on it. push that piece inward towards your key as you turn the ignition, if that fixes your problem then thats the piece at fault.

as for the other, lemme see what i can do... pm me if you still need help

Quiksilvia09 · 01-13-2011, 09:28 PM

And anyone have a diagram of all the grounds?

RACEBREAD · 01-14-2011, 12:31 AM

the blue relay next to the battery goes bad make a jumper cable and see if your car starts then thats ur problem lol

look around for clutch interlock relay and thats what im talking about and there lots of threads showin similar issues

Quiksilvia09 · 01-14-2011, 12:20 PM

I dont have a clutch interlock relay lol. I have a slush box

japslapsilvia · 01-14-2011, 01:45 PM

its ur EGI relay that is buzzing....bc of a lack of gounds....you can find all gounding locations in an FSM

murderrsirenss · 01-14-2011, 01:49 PM

maybe dead cell in your battery, borrow a finds and try to start your car.

Ive tried with jumpercables and it still does it AND I used that battery to run my camry

Where can I get a FSM? They dont show the Grounding locations in my Chiltons

HAWAII · 01-14-2011, 02:14 PM

Starter relay. Like what the guy said above, borrow a friend's, trace where the wire goes and see if all is plugged properly

Quiksilvia09 · 01-14-2011, 04:47 PM

someone told me to check the starter inhibitor switch. wheres that???

Quiksilvia09 · 01-14-2011, 05:13 PM

Just tried messing with it and it sounds like it's coming from the intake Mani?!?!

when I turn the key it "clicks" but the Buzzing sound stop's

ZenKi_373 · 01-14-2011, 05:50 PM

it clicks? did you check the 100a fuse in the passenger side? mine did a similar thing with a single click...

smoked240 · 01-14-2011, 06:35 PM

Yeah this is lack of grounds. or maybe the starter wire that goes onto the little tab on the solenoid could be shot. or not on. I went to start my car after the swap and it would do the exact same thing,word for word and my starter signal wire(not positive if this is the right term) slipped off.

My wire is good Already checked

Quiksilvia09 · 01-14-2011, 06:50 PM

100a? where?!

I only found a 75a

ZenKi_373 · 01-14-2011, 07:31 PM

its the one that is literally held by bolts to the fuse box. check those 75a and 100a fuses. look very closely!

The240Professor · 01-14-2011, 08:11 PM

Your ignition switch is wearing out and not getting a good connection when you turn the key this is a very common problem with 240's i have had 2 with the same problem i had to wiggle the key around till it started.

Quiksilvia09 · 01-15-2011, 04:54 AM

Quiksilvia09 · 01-15-2011, 04:55 AM
