no start at times
Well i have been having a no start at times with my auto eq ZR-1. Last week at the track ( drag) first run ok next run the scoreboard fail and i had to wait for about 20 mins while they installed a new chip. Ok time to fire up guess what
no start. It was too loud to hear anything so i was pushed back. After a couple more tries it fired up. So i just went home to play it safe. Sunday removed starter, Monday it went to a repair shop to be rebuilt. Got the starter back about 4:30 p.m. Monday. Installed starter while i was in there i tapped into the black with yellow tracer to gr from the starter enable relay as posted in a post from Gorden K. Good right? Wrong it failed again while i was at coastal corvettes the following Monday. I could only hear the starter click but no turn over. So i used a wire from the Battery to the large purple wire going to the starter, turned key on with car in park (auto ) it started right up when i touched the Battery feed to the purple wire. Well i went and replaced the starter enable relay as a precaution. As long as i have the drivers side hush panel down i would run a wire from a no/mon toggle switch next to my B&M shiftier to a relay that would feed 12v to the starter went i operate the toggle switch. So now if car won't start i can leave the key in the on position and start the car with the toggle switch. I have removed the clutch relay and ran the wires (yellow and purple) to safety switch on the auto shiftier so car will only start when it is park or neutral position. I'am going racing this Fri. night to test & tune and to see if just replacing the starter enable relay has helped. thanks for the help John 1990 white/black #2546 one of a few auto (4l80E ) EQ.
