Re: 1990 Lumina -Engine NOT turning over
your batter is probably shot. take it to a shop and have it load tested.

Re: 1990 Lumina -Engine NOT turning over
Thanks tblake, but I did have the battery tested..they told me the battery was good....WHILE HE WAS TESTING THE BATTERY HE SHOWED ME THE METER NEEDLE WENT TO 400.....NOT SURE WHAT THAT 400 WAS...!!!
IT SEEM TO BE A KIND OF SUDDEN FAULT BECAUSE I HAD JUST PARKED THE LUMINA IN THE GARAGE...AND JUST 3 MINUTES LATER, IT FAILED TO START.. |

Re: 1990 Lumina -Engine NOT turning over
Sounds like you have a bad starter or your starter wire is grounding out somewhere. Check the wires first.

Re: 1990 Lumina -Engine NOT turning over
I would agree that the starter is porbably shorted out, as long as all electrical connections are clean and tight.
