Sorry, my buddy is the one working on the car I'm just trying to help figure out the issue. I'm not sure which wire he's referring to... He thinks it's the neutral safety switch that needs replaced next. You're saying "rabbit hole" which makes me think I should bring it to a professional. Appreciate your thoughys!

When I test the hot wire it gets 12. Wire from ignition gets only 1 volt.

We just replaced the starter and no luck... Is the neutral safety switch an issue? What's next? Thanks!

Thank you for the reply. There is no click when you turn the key. We cleaned the posts and bought new clamps to put on. I will purchase starter contacts and give it a try. Thank you.

Appreciate the reply. True, the engine is not turning over. The car is an automatic so no clutch. Do you think the neutral safety switch could be the issue?

Hi there. My 2000 subaru legacy has had issues starting recently and now won't at all. I can put the key in, turn and radio comes on as well as lights but car won't start. I could hook up jumper cables and it would start right away. The other day the jumping stopped working. The car still has lights and radio though. We tried a new ignition switch but didn't help. The starter is still fine as it reads fine on a multidigital meter. The battery reads good too. My neighbor took out the neutral safety switch thinking that might be done. Going to buy one tomorrow. Would anyone have suggestions on where to go from here? Anything is appreciated. Thank you.
