Ok, so about a week and a half ago my battery died. I went and got a new battery and all was well for a week and then I tried turning the car on one morning and it wouldn't do anything like the battery was dead again. So, my guess was alternator. Wrong. It passed the test at Autozone.

Now, my dad suggested starter. So, I'm going take it out to be tested. Umm... where is it? What is it? What does it look like?

starter is hard to see.. It is 2 or 3 bolts on the top side of the transmission. You need to pull it from the bottom of the car too. it's directly under the intake manifold. It's nearly impossible to see once you put it in the car.

is it turning over at all? try running a wire directly to the starter from the battery. I thought my starter was bad but it ended up being a bad ground... after all of that work taking it out and getting it tested! mad.gif
