My starter crapped out on me a week ago and I changed it. It was doing the fast ticking that made me think the solenoid was crap.
Well I replaced it and now NOTHING, not even a tick. Noticed fuse (had blown). Pulled the wiring and checked. Got the 12 volts with ignition on from the climate control and such. Got the 12 volts from the battery cable. But when in start I get no voltage to the signal wire. Terminal #30.
Also on both my old starter and my new one I get continuity between pin #30 and the starters body. That doesnt seem right to me at all.
For starters I just want to see why there is no power to the wire on pin 30, I unhooked it and am just trying to make sure that I am at least getting that before I pull this new starter. If someone could confirm the color for the starter on the E30 side it would be greatly appreciated (for an 85 Eta).
