PROBLEM AFTER PROBLEM :@ V not starting

[mowgli123]

Right guys i'm having so many issues with my glanza...

Firstly the gearlinkage shat itself

Then there was a air leak - Whistling noise when revving..

Now the car doesnt want to start!!

Battery is fine, however doesnt fire up..

When i turn the key I can hear a little click from a purple fusing looking from the fuse box

Starter motor????

Where is the starter motor dude? I can seem to identify it

It's that thing bolted to the gear box at the back of engine

Can't locate it im probably being stupid but could someone get a picture up for me please? Cheers

This happned to my car at JAE last year, one of the terminal wires came off the battery and the solonoid would click but the starter motor wouldnt turn over. Check that you have put all your connections back onto the battery.

had this issue before for me it was the earth going onto the gearbox that had broken off

My car cut off when i turned round a bend.

Battery seems cool all the lights are still bright hmm..

Someone please help me !! Thinking if this car is really for me

Would be a good idea to chech you wires on the battery. Give the wires a tug even if they look ok.

My negative terminal came loose without me knowing made it like my battery was flat

I've just been through this exact same problem after putting my new engine in basically you've got a earth problem your starter ain't gettin 1 by the sounds of it so link up a bit of cable from the negative on the battery to the outer case of the starter and try it then hope it helps

[mowgli123]

Is it that little thing under the intake manifold?

[akyakapotter]

Starter is on the gear box bud where it meets the block

Right taken some pictures of the battery connecters and starter motor I think and they're really bodged up!

Found the problem it was an earth I just attatched one random wire to the body and one to negative terminal and it started... hmm

Anyone want to explain this? lol

[jayc-glanza17]

poor earths, and by looking at previous owner, who scammed people, id say he doesn't car about anything in life, so really yu just bought his mess..

sounds like car needs a good check over..

Gearbox earth I think, and judging by them pics it's gone?
