    My 1999 SILVERADO 2500HD just stopped starting and now all its doing is turn key and get one click yet no start. I did check my battery and its full. So assuming its the 3:51 3:51 starter i ordered one but its not arriving until Wednesday today is Monday and I gotta get to work tomorrow (tues)..... Now I need to get her started So I'm going to try your backup plan with a jumper cable clipped on my battery ground connector (driverside) and then clipped down on the passenger side of the frame somewhere near the starter? Thank you for the knowledge!!

    @@digitalcomplexity yes chance it's a bad ground connection, doesn't hurt to try checking with cables go from negative of battery anywhere on passenger side frame long as it can get a clean bite, rust or paint might mess up good connection. But you should be able to locate a ground there though, but being 1999? Prob the starter unless something other ignition? I can't remember any of that year model having these issues from 08 and up? But possible and wishing you luck

    So, a 47" ground cable is now $22! but I added that in today and after that it started on the first try. So we'll see what it does when it gets hot? That's usually when it would "click" 5-6-7-8-9 times! before starting... it didn't look that corroded down there but the bolt had a big black spot and there was a little bit of white stuff, so I took some emory cloth and scraped everything up and added that ground cable and run it up to the battery and bing bang boom we'll call that fixed! Thanks

    I never understand why dudes switch chit like that. The TH350 is best - as it has no electronics. It's a classic car - so if the purpose is gas mileage then buy a 2024 cadillac. Just like these STUPID ls motor swaps into classic cars. They see someone else do it -- so they gotta go copy them. Takes the "classic" out of the classic car

    I'm having an issue my truck wouldn't start I would have to jump my battery or charge my battery so I figure I needed a new battery I just put a brand new battery in and now it just clicks once I went down and I can feel it click on the solenoid for the starter so I figured the starter was bad I took the starter out I put it on the bench I tested it out with the battery and it starts up just fine maybe the ground I did test the battery is fully charged I also hooked up a secondary battery as a jump starter and it still just one click

  • @RANS87IROCZ
    @RANS87IROCZАй бұрын

    Yes check that ground connection I show, I worked for a shop and we did all of the above prior, checked battery was solid, tested starter on truck by adding power to the ignition feed and it cranked, we was suspecting ignition after that but? We had 12 plus also on key turn so, we then started checking grounds and magically the ground from battery negative to frame was not making good connection and a simple clean up fixed it, but we also added whole new wire to same spot? Just incase for extra measure and ultimately this solved this customers issue

  • @RANS87IROCZ
    @RANS87IROCZАй бұрын

    Taking a set of jumper cables and connect to the negative side off battery then take other end and clean a spot on the frame and then clamp the other end to that clean spot and give it a try, norm if its a bad ground from battery to body this trick will serve as a temporary body to battery ground

  • @RANS87IROCZ

    Or from negative of battery right to anywhere on engine block you can get the other end to clamp on, like any large steel bracket, or bolts on the block you can possibly clamp the cable too

    You need a scan tool, find someone with one or find reasonable mechanic to clear most parts stores offer scan but not allowed to clear, but definitely had this one here and because it was topped off on fill up the fuel found its way in the purge system causing the issue and for this customer this solved the issue but sure the purge valve can also go bad but if you know that you have been filling it fuel often this could very well be the issue
