kool bro. Mahalo..:cool edit... yep, thats the correct number for my 89.

Thanks to all. I learned alot from this thread,and boomdriver as well. I'm going to keep driving until it doesn't start again, then i'm going after the relay. Which will probably turn out to be tomorrow.lol

kool.. i'll be able to bypass it with this diagram. I just have to make sure i get the right relay behind the dash.lol. I got the part number in another thread, so i can identify it by that. Today i just jacked up the car,removed,cleaned and reinstalled the grounds on the bellhousing,block and...

Starter enable relay? The one in the dash. My dealer can't find it.

ThanKs. Since i'm going to keep the car ( it will be a monster), i'm thinking if i have to tear behind the dash to get at the relay, i might as well just replace it when i'm in there. Only thing, my manual is a Haynes. Crappy, they don't even mention the main ignition switch or the enable relay...

Thanks guys. Since the starter is new, the fusable links,posts and grounds are all good, i'm using the spare key which is like new,lots of meat on the pellet, i'm thinking it's that relay behind the dash. I think i'll tear into to it and jump the relay and see what happens. I really don't think...

ha ha ... to many to count. Never heard of one burst into flames on the way home from the dealer though..

My bad, i had the meter set on the wrong "range" setting. Where is the vats starter enable relay located. I'm leaning toward this,or the key switch. The vats bypass is a last resort. I don't think i need the bypass, because when i got most of the no crank conditions, i didn't have to wait the...

Good info, yes i'm trying to build a bypass. Props to member boomdriver Yep,just checked again,got 11.86 on the newest key. So looks like a #15. What resistor should i use? I'm chasing a intermittent no crank, which has turned into, rarely a crank.lol Turn key,all lights and everything come...

Aloha gang, I measured the resistance on both my ignition keys. 11.79ohm and 11.89ohm. Would this be considered a #11 or a #12. I need to buy a matching resistor at radio shack. Not sure which to get. Thanks.

I had a 77.. 89 .... and 99,all modded and paid off. Sold them all and regret it still. So i picked up another 89 2 1/2 drop on 19 deep dish rims, i'll mod the motor and then get another c5 and start the collection over again.

dude, i have the exact same sound. Only notice it when i'm in a drive thru and sound is bouncing off the wall. My exhaust is pretty loud. My car is an auto though. I also don't have any cats or resonator. So it's not that. This weekend, i'm putting my car up on ramps (pain because the car is...

Reguarding the trans fluid level.Could the radiator have an internal leak letting the trans fluid mix with the water inside the radiator?

Thanks guy's. I'll start checking all the grounds. Have started the car 10 times since last nite. Fires on the first crank everytime. I checked the fusable links this morning with a quik visual. The post and connectors are in great shape with no corrosion. Start checking/cleaning grounds later...

well...... got the new starter. Took about 15 mins to put in. Go to start car, same exact problem. Tried about 10 times nothing. Pulled the theft fuse (NOT the vats fuse), reinstalled and the car fired rite up. This doesn't even make sense as the battery was disabled all day long. There should...

Just went ahead and ordered a starter. If thats not the problem,it will be soon. Will be in friday morning. Weird when the hood is open and i try to start it,i atually hear 2 clicks. The second one sounds like an injector click/pop.

The battery is 3 years old. I took it out this morning. Put it on the battery charger for about 3 hours.Battery seems strong. All lights come on bright when the door is open, when i hit my key fob (keyless entry), door locks lock quikly and the lights all flash twice brightly as normal. On my...

Good point on the clicking, must be getting a signal. I gotta say, looks like it could be the origanal starter. I'm thinking of just going ahead and replacing it. If it's not the problem now (i think it is), it will be soon.lol Car has been well taken care of. Clean,wires in pretty good shape...

To my suprise, the hood tool came. It was about 6:45pm,got the hood top pop in less than 5 mins. Put the battery on the charger for a couple hours,just to be sure. Reinstalled battery,tapped starter, nothing but clicking. Dash and alarm panel lite up. There was a couple times i didn't hear...
