so i been searching all day and making some posts on other forums. my starters not getting power. i turn the key and i get a click inside the car, and one by the battery. i thought it could be a bad interlock relay so i did the bypass i found on here with no luck. my starters still not getting power. the relay is gone, and im still getting a click near the battery. when i run a wire to the starter form the battery it turns over but i still cant get the engine to start. it was running fine yesterday. started up and ran like a champ.

How do you know it's not getting power? If you have a bad/siezing starter, you'll just hear a click. Try to hit it with a wrench and start it again.

If the battery voltage is low enough, the starter will still spin, but the ecu won't turn the relay on for the fuel pump. If you tried to start it over and over, I'd charge your batter or get a jump if you can hear the starter start to spin.
