Starts then shuts off right away, but currently will not even crank over. It has a full battery charge. I had to repair the fuel pump harness as it had a broken wire, I used wire caps because I did not have the proper connectors and heat to do it that way, not to mention I cannot get harness off car and didn’t want to cause an explosion. Is there a fuse for the starter? I can’t get it to turn over at all now and the fuel pump isn’t kicking in either. I have included the fuel pump broken wire I cut harness and wired in a connector.

Couple questions first, do you have the smart key system? If not, I am attaching the wiring diagram below for the starting circuit.

Basically, we need to check for voltage at the starter and then start tracking it through the system to find where we are losing it.

There are fuses and relays involved with this, but I would pick a starting point at the beginning or end of the circuit and start tracking power.

Run through this info in the diagram and let me know what you find with the voltage in the system.
