dp213 Posted July 27, 2016 Share Posted July 27, 2016 My 97 just died while I was backing up today. It's a 2.5 with automatic and about 170k on it. It died while backing up and now nothing. All the dash lights and electrical work, but it won't even turn over, not even a click when you try to start it. I went and got a new battery and still the same. Any ideas?

Fairtax4me Posted July 27, 2016 Share Posted July 27, 2016 Fusible link probably burned out. In the underhood fuse box, looks like a black wire. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dp213 Posted July 27, 2016 Author Share Posted July 27, 2016 I'm not that lucky. Ignition switch possibly? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
montana tom Posted July 27, 2016 Share Posted July 27, 2016 Here's a few things to check. I assume that you have tried starting in neutral ? Jumping have no effect ? Look for the small power wire leaving the positive terminal. This should feed power to the underhood fuse box. Is there power at the fuses ? Excessive corrosion at battery ? In park if you know how...try jumping the solenoid at the starter. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
