    Haha. When i first got my car after having a manual ever since i got my L's, I went to start it one day and it wouldnt crank.. I spent literally hours checking all the fuses and starter motor and shit, then after lots of cursing i noticed something... I slid it from drive to park and it started fine... boy did i feel stupid that day. haha.

    it seemed fine? di u look at it and go "looks the same as before must be alright" or did you try to short it out with a screw driver. i had problems like that, i changed the solinoid and never had a problem since.
