I need help.. The car has been parked outside for about two days without use. I got in this morning to find a ticking sound while trying to start it... So i knew it was the starter. So i went to the scrap yard and got a used starter, tested it at the shop and it worked fine. I braught it home to install on the car. I install it, try to start the car, and It didnt start. Not only did it not start but the starter made no noise what so ever. So i uninstalled it thinking it was a bad starter, reinstalled the old one to see if it would click again... and this one tooo made no sound at all. SO! i checked all the fuses under the dash and in the engine bay. and found the clutch relay fuse 20A burned. Replaced it.. and still no luck with both starters... I checked the ground wires that connect the tranny to the chasis and it was destroyed so i replaced it... STILL didnt work. tried boosting the car with the star out of its place to see if it works at all still nothing. I rechecked all the fuses and nothings wrong wth them CCAN YOU PLEAASE shed some light on my situation, i need to get my girlfriends car fixed. I cant have her driving my baby much longer. HELP ME PLEASE.
