ryde2idie Posted February 13, 2009 Report Share Posted February 13, 2009 (edited) is your starter solenoid mounted on the starter? and do you have good connections on the battery and the starter?

brewer_brewer Posted March 11, 2009 Report Share Posted March 11, 2009 yeah sounds like the "park, neutral switch" try this. run a wire directly off your starter(or just hold it on there temporarily) have your ignition on. and then touch that wire to the positive on your battery. if it turns over then you just narrowed it down to the park, neutral switch. a buddy of mine has an old 4 runner and thats how we bypassed his switch to get it started.
