Hey everyone,
My car isnt cranking when i turn the keys to ignite. All the accessories work, but when turning the key to ignite, there is basically silence. No click, no nothing and the lights certainly do not dim.
Last night i replaced my front speakers, so i removed the cables attached to the positive and negative terminals accordingly. Upon being replaced there was a spark, so i assume something must of shorted somewhere. Ive checked and replaced the fuselink. Ive checked the fuse box and alarm system and none of the fuses are blown. However, when putting a test lamp to the fuses such as number 11, the lamp does not light up.
I have also put a lamp on the starter motor voltage areas and it does light up.
I am totally stumped and not sure what else to check. Ive also knocked on the starter motor to no avail.
Car is an 318is.
