starter will not turn over	Sign In

2004 Sebring Convertible 38,00 miles V6. Initially wife told me wipers would not work & turn signals would not work. When I looked into it (a few days later) both wipers & signals worked, but radio would not work. Checked all fuses, they were ok. Radio then worked. tried to start car & it would not turn over. No solonoid click, no loss of voltage when key engaged (lights did not dim) checked all fuses, and again they were ok. whild jiggling the key, wipers quit & turn signals quit, but both came back. Replaced ignition switch. Now everything works, but still no starter. HELP!!

There should be a trigger wire at the starter you can check to see if it lights with a test light upon starter request. Connection of it, wiring to it, or solenoid if no noise at all AND it does get power. Battery cables connections at both ends need be known good. IMO if just the starter died the solenoid would still give a click you would hear,

cheever; Did you have the new tumbler keyed to your original ignition key? If not, take the tumbler back out, take the tumber and your original key to a locksmith and have the tumbler re-keyed. (assuming this is an automatic trans). Also, did you check the battery cable connections at the battery? It is probably under the driver's side fender. Usually requires removal of the LF tire to gain access.
