Re: 93 Starter Not Engaging

Re: 93 Starter Not Engaging
Very interesting reading here. I still have 2 - 1990 ZR-1 cars, neither have started in last 3 years. I believe I have the exact same scenario.
One thing to note was I did discover in the upper column ignition key switch, that the tiny white wire was broken where it contacts the key switch, so I bought new key switch and proper new key with the same resistor. Have not tried starting since new switch installed, BUT I am using one of those aftermarket VATS BYPASS electrical box that I found at a corvette parts supplier, which in my mind should eliminate the need for that tiny white broken wire issue to be replaced???? Or am I wrong in thinking that way ?? Anyways will be again trying to work on my red car, starting from scratch all over again in case I missed something. This time hope to find and check every ground wire. Years ago on a base 1990 corvette....it won't start in front of buddies Auto Electric Repair Shop. Took him 2weeks trying everything possible, finally run an extra ground wire to the ECM, started right up......defied all logic, but it worked great ! Sent from my iPhone using ZR-1 Net Registry

Re: 93 Starter Not Engaging
Question: does my 1990 ZR/1 have the PKE, passive key , I never have had key fobs for either cars. Should I need to get new FOBs to be able to play with the door locks to try and get security light working ? Thanks

Re: 93 Starter Not Engaging
Today got to check both fusible links behind battery and both are good. Checked all connections and everything appears as new (10,000 mile car).
It certainly seems like something that a fuse would cause but Ive checked every fuse in the car twice, both underhood sets and the main panel at the end of the dash. |

Re: 93 Starter Not Engaging
Did you check by eyesight, or did you back probe each with a meter?

Re: 93 Starter Not Engaging
Sorry for the confusion, I meant on the fuses in all fuse blocks.
