1998 Beetle Won't Turn Over
My friend's 1998 Beetle won't turn over.
The battery seems to be okay - I hooked up good jumper cables to it and no change. The solenoid clicks. The fuel pump goes on. The headlights and horn are strong. It simply won't turn over - it doesn't start to turn over like it has a bad battery - just won't turn over at all. I tried in both Park and Neutral. Same symptom. Solenoid clicks. That's all. It did the same thing a month ago, and a shop changed the speed sensor. Does anyone have ideas? My friend lost his job and has no dough, and I'd like to help him. THANKS!!!! |

Re: 1998 Beetle Won't Turn Over
Sounds like the starter is junk. If it worked for a month now it doesn't again. Try tapping on the starter with a flashlight or something when the person is trying to start the car (hint its on the front side of the transmission under the batter and to the middle
