In this video I am going to show you a trick I learned from diagnosing no crank no start conditions, you only a paper clip, access to your relay box and a test light to do this. Play this hack on your friends or use it next time you can't get your car to start to diagnose and fix your no crank no start issue.

UPDATE Unfortunately, I found out that I have a key with chip....so this method didn't work for me... but this video led me to another video and my NO start problem turns out to be a crankshaft position sensor... It has taken me 4 years to figure this issue out. a simple $20 part and 30 min install and finally, it's fixed.

@@tyreecammon7356 we bought a crankshaft position sensor for 20.00. HOWEVER, that only solved a different problem. We have determined 3 yrs later that my main pully was going out and causing an overheating problem just enough to keep the car from starting. I bought a new car and gave my jeep to my daughter, and they figured it out.. 8 years of that issue

My first car a 1990 Oldsmobile Cutlass (gutless) wouldn't crank when turning the key. I hooked a wire straight to the starter terminal and left it under the hood. To start the car I would have to put the key in the ignition, turn it to ON and pop the hood. Then I would touch my custom starter wire to the positive battery terminal and sparks would fly every where and the car would crank and start. I gotta a lot of funny looks while doing that.

Klingensmith AutoTech A short in the ignition switch would cause the starter to crank continously, or if it was a short to ground it would blow the ignition fuse, cause a fire, drain the battery etc etc. Didn't have any of those problems, like I said it was most likely a faulty neutral switch.

Good on ya. Also, if you don't have a paperclip, or want to use one, if you take starter relay out, and hit it a few times with a hammer or something ridged, you can get relay unstuck and work another handful of times. Also, sometimes the same relay is used for something no essential, such as the AC ,which you can swap in until you can acquire a replacement Source:Me, probably

People seemed entirely too confused by this video and the fact that he had a key. This presumes there is a starting problem to diagnose, not that you lack a key and need to use JUST a paper clip. That is the premise. If you have your key and can start the car with it, you wouldn't be poking around with a paperclip in the first place as you would NOT have a starting problem to diagnose. It is rather simple, and he explained it beautifully. If you start the car with the key, it closes the relay switch in the process. If that all works, you system is fine and you wouldn't need to pop out the relay, play with paperclips or anything. But if you turn your key and nothing happens, you might want to rule out one half or the other. Less parts to play with makes fixing a problem faster and smarter. The paperclip isolates half of the system. If you can turn on your control modules with the key and start the car with the paper clip, you have just ruled out the starter, the wires to and from the battery, starter, and fuse/relay box, and have either a bad relay or something on the OTHER half of the system. Even if you just replaced the relay (without testing the old one), you would not know IF the relay was actually bad unless the car then starts. If the car still won't start with the new relay, you probably just replaced a perfectly good relay. That is the brainless way to fix (not diagnose) a problem (start replacing parts until it works). If you lack a key, THAT is itself a MAJOR factor in not being able to start your car. LOL. One would first replace the key by going to the dealer or would replace the lock cylinder and get a new key that way. Then you can at least start the car without hot-wiring (which he mentioned) if everything else is good. The point is that if you do NOT have a key, and think you have starting issues, you probably need to get a key first as lacking one IS a starting issue.

The most someone would be able to do without either having the key in the on position or hotwiring the car would be wear down the battery, as the ignition circuit would not be on and the starter would just crank with no "fire" from the spark plugs.

At least the RCMP got the crack heads, later that evening. '60's Mopars, run a jumper cable from the battery terminal, to the coil positive, no steering column lock. I don't know how far you'd get before the electronic ignition module would get fried. Because you are bypassing the ballast resistor, and that ignition system can't handle 12 volts to the coil

Jimmy unless you're working on a diesel engine. They will keep running untill you stall it.

Jimmy Yes. If a diesel engine is running, the only option to turn it off is to choke it. There is a valve in the intake System that closes when the key is turned.

Jimmy disconnecting the battery won't kill the car as long as the alternator is good, like if you have a junk battery that needs a jump all the time its literally just as good as no battery, so disconnecting a battery won't kill the car unless that alternator is bad, a way to kill it is to cut off the spark to the engine, or to cut the fuel off

I am badly confused, why would anyone want to use a paperclip to start a car, especially when you also need a key in the ignition, so why not make it even simpler, if you turn your key one step further it will start your car, and no need for a paperclip or removing any relay.

true, if you can bridge ignition circuit and then use paperclip, you can, but you won't drive very far as the steering won't turn, secondly if your car has an immobiliser, it won't fire up either.

if you add a power line to a ACC line in the fuse box you don't need a key (unless you have a chip or VATS) so bridge a always hot line to acc then use the paper clip to start the car then your golden. this is obviously bad for the electrical system and should never be done but criminals do it.

Ok,great it worked!!!! Now I just have to find the problem. I had already switched the relay with another relay and that didnt work......Unless both relays are bad. Thanks for all your help though...it is so nice hearing the car running again!!! I just wish I knew more about cars!!and i wonder if its safe to trust a wire clip to keep starting it until i figure out the problem.I know the battery is good,its new. 😊 UPDATE-OMG I DID have 2 bad relays,i tried a different relay and the car started!! 👍
