96 Chevy Blazer Will Not Start

Adell · #1 05-25-2005, 08:59 PM

Greetings,

All of a sudden my engine will not turn over...it appears the battery is good because the lights come on and even with a charge the engine would not turn over. You can hear what sounds like a relay clicking when turning the key but that is it.

Can anyone point me to some a site that gives pics of where the starter, ignition, selonoid are located and how to test them? This is what I am told to check, it must be one of them.

If anyone can help it would be sincerely appreciated.

TIA

Have your batery load tested.

Take a voltmeter out there and test the voltage.

I had attempted to slave the battery thinking that it may have low voltage or cranking amps. Do I still need to use a voltmeter?

Thanks

tap the starter with a hammer it may start then

Tried that too, no avail. Appears I have a short somewhere so I took it to the shop, still no word back; hopefully it will not be an arm & leg to find and fix the prob.

Thanks

Welp, looks like it was a short in some fuse line, $115 later and its fixed. Thanks for all of your help!
