I'm having a problem getting my starter to crank. When testing for power I'm supposed to get 12V at terminal 50 when the key is in the start position. I don't.
What's very strange is that when I disconnect the wire from the terminal and test the wire I get 12V at start then also position #2! ??? Then as soon as I reattach it to the terminal the 12V disappears. I'm stumped.
The starter does work though. I jumped terminal 30 and 50 and the car starts right up.
I've been told this is called backfeeding but I don't know how that works.
I will be testing the C200 connector from the ignition switch next. Then I guess I have to start testing my wiring harness as well..
But any insight here would be greatly appreciated it. I want to use my key again! :)
edit: I forgot to mention that I have continuity from Pin 27 at the ECU and the black wire at terminal 50...
