Ka24de no crank

[JaiDaJoker]

Just replaced my s13 de with another s13 de and i cant get it to crank i believe i have everything hooked up correctly. Is there something that i may have overlooked?

[Nissansota240]

yes there is something you overlooked

[Eramo323]

:werd: msglnght

[JaiDaJoker]

lol like what? all grounds are connected, fuel pump primes, all interior electronics working

[Nissansota240]

Try telling us a little bit more about you problem, you are very bland

[Eramo323]

did you happen to mess with the harness as well, or just swap the motor?

[Eramo323]

is the battery charged? any of the plugs left unconnected? is the starter clicking at all? blow a fuse or relay?

[JaiDaJoker]

starters not clicking at all, but it was ckicking before the swap. brand new battery, and there are two plugs behind the engine near the firewall that arent plugged into anything but dont seem to have a place to go. I left harness intact before i swapped the motor

[JaiDaJoker]

also no blown fuses or relays.

clutch pedal starer wire up by fusebox

[JaiDaJoker]

clutch pedal starer wire up by fusebox

which fusebox? annd it was an auto==>> manual swap if that makes a difference. oh and clutch slave cylinder currently isnt mounted to tranny

[JaiDaJoker]

there was a relay mising the n&p clutch relay. plugged it in but no success.

[JaiDaJoker]

Im still stumped, anybody have any ideas?

[first_choice]

a new key!

[JaiDaJoker]

what do you mean a new key?

[Eramo323]

so it was running before? the 5 speed swap had already been done?
(I think he is joking about the key)

[Nissansota240]

did you hook up the starter signal plug

[WIKID S4TEEN]

Need more details!!!
Ok, your starter work?
Do you even have power at the starter?
Just because the wires are connected, don't mean sh!t.
MORE INFO!!!

[JaiDaJoker]

does anybody know what it is?

[Nissansota240]

Take a bunch of photos of your engine bay and post them to this thread, try not to be so stupid on the internet and give more info. DERP

[Jake671]

Find your wiring schematic for the starter circuit. There shouldn't be much in between the battery and the starter. Typically the ignition switch, starter relay, neutral safety switch, and a fuse.

[Eramo323]

werd, take the starter and get it tested, use jumper cables if necessary. Double check all of the connections!

[JaiDaJoker]

ok, and yes before i swapped the new motor the prev motor before it blew started up with the 5spd swap. the starter worked before. ill double check connections and go to get starter checked.

[JaiDaJoker]

went to get the starter checked, bad solenoid. So i picked up a new starter and hopefully itll stop raining soon so i can replace it and get the car running

[JaiDaJoker]

Thanks for all the help

[Eramo323]

hopefully it works

still no crank O_o i took some pictures of the engine bay, ill post them in a little. theyre from before with old starter but since that is now replaced with new one it has to be something else

[Eramo323]

is the starter getting any power ?

[JaiDaJoker]

how do I check that? well more specifically how would I check that with a multimeter?

[JaiDaJoker]

I check voltage and im only getting 2 -4 volts to the starter but im getting 12.75 at battery

[Eramo323]

probably a bad connection to your interlock switch ?

[JaiDaJoker]

found a loose connection form when it was spliced for 5spd swap still no luck but symptoms have changedhttp://i47.tinypic.com/wqpoc4.jpg

getting 12V to the switch and starter now ?

[JaiDaJoker]

sorry for pis being so big, but yea i found the loose wire where the blue connectors are at now and when the 5 spd swap was first done that being connected as the only ay for car to start , however still no crankhttp://i50.tinypic.com/71k2ee.jpg

[JaiDaJoker]

yep getting over 12 v to switch and starter now

[JaiDaJoker]

but now in car radio doesnt come on, nor room lights, but clock is on, so im assuming blown fuse somewhere now?

correct me if I'm wrong but shouldn't those wires be hooked to each other -.-
are you getting 12V to the interlock switch ans the starter now ?
yep check the fuses !

[JaiDaJoker]

Alternator connected right with grounds and cable?http://i47.tinypic.com/ipz1b5.jpg

[JaiDaJoker]

you mean to connect the black cables and white cables together?

[JaiDaJoker]

and in regards to the interlock switch , I was under the belief that sinced these two wires were connected to eachother the clutch wouldnt need to be depressed to start car, thus eliminating the interlock switch?

[Eramo323]

[JaiDaJoker]

ok gimme 5 mins to check

[JaiDaJoker]

the plug referred to in the pic has 2 black cables, the one that was disconnected has one white one black, but yea the one that need to be jumped to itself is jumped to itself. Inside the car with no key in the igniton door lamp tuns on and map lights, however when i move to acc they start to dim and the door chime turns into a door click and when i turn to on position it clicks or makes no noise whatsoever

Im having the same problem any luck and what wires did you get crossed and did your relays kick on and off? mine do not clock (efi and the ones on the right side of the car.)

Ask JDMRiddaz, he came out to the house and solved my problem.

[Linux2501]

I got it I am tossing the auto and doing a 5speed swap and I proceeded with the wiring the way you would a 5speed swap
