cant get me wagon to start

[bootsoda]

I bought my wagon with push button start the starter was bad so i replaced it and now it wont start i made sure i put the wires back where i got them from on the starter does anyone have any idea why it wont start?

 

[RonJ]

So was the original starter fine and the problem is actually the push button?

 

[bootsoda]

I have no idea i bought a new push button toggle and a new starter and still nothing i have two wires going from my toggle to my starter one is connected to the ground and the other to the little clip on the starter

 

[RonJ]

Does voltage reach the button and the starter solenoid?

Does the large wire at the starter motor get voltage?

 

[bootsoda]

the whole car is wired weird the battery is in the back i just connected to wires to the starter both go to the toggle i have one wire coming out of my harness that wasnt put anywhere i would like to just make it have a regular starter if possible i dont see a benefit of bush button i just can figure out why it worked with the old starter i was just slippn so i wanted to put a new starter in

You didn't answer any questions I asked.

And are you saying that you want to return the starter wires to stock?

 

[bootsoda]

yea i have power to the starter thru the large wire and i do not know if the selinoid does i think its supposed to when i push the toggle if its easier to make it back to stock i would rather do that

 

[RonJ]

Check for voltage at the toggle button, and at solenoid when the button is pushed. Then report back.

 

[bootsoda]

i am thinking it might be my battery is to low of juice but when i push it i thought i would hear it atleast try to turn over i have power to both toggle and starter

 

[RonJ]

Use a multimeter and measure voltage across the two battery posts. What's the reading?

Next do this:

Check for voltage at the toggle button, and at solenoid when the button is pushed. Then report back.

 

[bootsoda]

i just jumped it and it was clicking but then whole car shut off and i have no power to nothing i checked all fuses and there good what do u think that is

 

[Johnnysons]

check your battery and i think the problem is with that only.

Do what Ron says. Get a multimeter and measure the voltage.
