No power to the Black and Yellow Starter Switch wire? HELP!!!

[Mini-L320]

I have no power going to the Black and Yellow wire that sends the signal from the switch (turn key) to the Starter solenoid. And yes I did turn the key to the start position and the wire reads nothing.

 

i saw that the Black n yellow wire goes to a box with a couple of other wires. Voltage Regulator? and can that go bad causing the black/yellow wire not to get any power?

Place tranny in Park or Neural. :lol:

 

I can't find this black box with the black/yellow stripe wire going to it. Test the output from the ignition switch.

I have a Manual Tranny.

I have a Manual Tranny.

Replace the 20 amp fuse and clean its contacts.

CHECK THE OUTPUT OF THE IGNITION SWITCH. If you gots 12V there, but not at the starter, the problem is the wire circuit between

 

The other boxes are not related (at least, not supposed to be)

 

and put yor manual transmission in nuetral

Ummm, are you getting 12 to the switch first?

[Mini-L320]

I havent tested it yet. But I will do so and let you guys know.

 

yes the tranny is in N and I also press the clutch even tho u dont have to on older cars

do this first then ck out the switch.

then ck if wire insulation might look smashed or maybe stretched. Wire could be broken under insulation but still looks visable good.

Im getting on that right now. I'll let you guys know what goes on.

Yes i do have power to the switch. Can i just make a wire straight from the switch to the starter solenoid? (replacing the Black/yellow wire) cause ripping all the wire insulation will be a pain in the ass just to find that wire.

Which Fuse is that one for?

 

I've checked all my fuses in the box and they are all good.

[banzai510(hainz)]

can you see the color codes of the wire at the switch??????

 

If you know which wire feeds the switch then you know where the blk yellow wire contack is then romove the plug and ohm ck it and put the key to START and see if you get a short. Thats if back of the swithc has a plastic plug. maybe the older cars the wire is soldered on the back I dont know. If its a solder type I guess you could just wire a bypass wire along the harness and out to the selinoid as You stated.

 

Can you throw in some photos

Fuses that have a crack in the ribbon to metal cap can touch just enough to show continuity but will not pass any current larger than that equivalent to a mouse fart.

I have a plug behind my Key Switch. seeing that everything else works fine on the car im just gonna run a wire straight from the switch to the solenoid. But thanks alot you guys, really appreciate it.

not to threadjack, but where does the yellow/black wire go to? i just got my 510 today and this wire is just hanging out of the harness near the starter. any help would be greatly appreciated!!

 

 

 

 

 

EDIT i found out where that wire goes, sorry, im still new!!!!

[banzai510(hainz)]

if your car starts it Aint that wire.

The other could really be the oil switch wire but you know that right?Makes sense so you must have a mechanical oil gauge
