Hello, I do not usually comment on videos that I see about mechanics teachings, but this time I did because this video with this information was of great help to me, because my Toyota matrix did not want to start the engine, I only hear a small noise when I turn the key. but only that and after seeing this video I knew what was causing that and I went straight to the RELAY and took it out then I went to the AutoZone to buy a new one and put it in and right away I started my car and the mechanic wanted to charge me 100 an hour to diagnose the problem and thanks to this video I saved that money a thousand thanks because there are people who take the time to teach us and thus know the possible causes of the problem thanks.

Loved the video and advice. I don't have any of those testing devices so I opted to just buy the relay for $40 and it worked like a charm. If that didn't work it was going into the shop in hopes of finding someone with your skills. Thanks so much for saving me some money and lots of time and headache.

Thanks for the video, I might have the same problem, a failing relay that magnetizes intermittently. I'll reply once I know.

I have the same problem currently , I got new starter battery and relay but still no crank no start , don’t have the tools to test anything really , any advice or further troubleshooting steps if it’s not the relay either??

"I wrench under my tree but terrible at troubleshooting. I smiled when U replaced the relay and started the car"!! Can't wait to get back to my trees and try this out.

Great video! You can access the relay easier by popping off the heater vent bezel above that and reach it from the top :)

You could remove the vent above it on the matrix pry it out with a flat head

Give 12 volts to the skinny wire on the starter! If it cranks... the starter is not the problem
