Hey everyone. I put up a thread earlier about my VX V6 that only starts sometimes. It still has been happening after I have changed starter motor, relay, coils, leads, plugs and Egr module. For those of you who don’t know about this situation, I can start the car like normal. After starting and switching it off a few times it will no longer crank when I turn the key. Everything just dims like normal when you usually go to crank it over. It also has a new battery so I know it’s not voltage related. What I’ve found out is that if it bridge the main power wire on the starter motor to the trigger wire it will work again. It just won’t start with the key. So, in fewer words, the car does run fine it’s just every now and then it won’t want to crank. Sometimes it’ll work after 5 minutes, sometimes after 1 hour or so. Any ideas? Was thinking CAS but apparently this isn’t a symptom of it. Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks!
