i) check ur battery...
ii) check ur battery connection...(battery pole)...

 

[sylkhannaz]

from my experience, if there is no sound at all, the possibilities are:
1. Your battery is out. Maybe old oledi. If you have a voltmeter then u can check this. You can also look at your in-car light go dim if volt low.
2. Wiring problems.

I suspect it is electrical since u have already change ur starter.

This problem also happen to me b4 CNY. My machenic said battery OK then ask me to change the starter. So. I beli starter toyota s/charger from ZTH member (Eric if I not mistaken) then baru OK........but....after balik kg..still problem again..then I bengang I change the new Battery (dry cell) until now still OK. So the main problem is battery..2 years tak tukar..thats why it happen. So, I advice you to change to the new battery. Solve problem.

 

[Feilo]

Yup, mayb the battery cell oledi weak..... I think better change the battery b4 check with the wireman..... coz now day maintance free battery is cheaper then b4.....

 

[tctho]

check the fuis maybe fuis putus or battery connector to the main cable loose.

this after noon
forman come again
he direct used the battery to start the car and by pass the switch
and the car can start imediatelly
and take the car back to workshop to check some wiring problem and found out that the old alarm cable were still incontect with the wire (i also donno how he know that is the old alarm cable lah)

then after taken out the old alarm part then the car can start any time i turn the switch

then we take back the car and go home!


and now the car is under observation
until night time i will try to start it again see whether it can start or still cannot start lah


damn..............never buy any second hand 10 ++ Years car again

but luckly the car is not mine (is my friend punya)
