well i got a whole bunch of new stuff.gov spring exahuast guages ect. went out to start my truck to move it and the battery was dead.so i try to jump it with my suburban.i let it jump for about 20 min. turn the key and it turns 3 or 4 times and hear a click click and then nothing wont turn over and i have no wait to start or anything else.i have power to everything else just nothing to the ignition can anybody help? this is on a 92 w250 any help is appreciated

 

check fuses check fusable links .if your batt. is real bad and you have cheezy jumper cables it wont start you need a good bit of amps. to turn it over

 

Check the things rebal said, clean your connections, I just went through that on a truck. Dad had it running in the morning, shut it down because he needed his keys went to start it up again and nothing, bad connection right at the battery post.

 

turn on the lights and turn the key, if the lights dont dim then its probably a starter problem... so hit the starter with a hammer and try again. if they do dim then continue with the bad battery issue.

 

get a new battery....

 

Any news???????????

 

well i put a new battery in it and still nothing. i have all my acc (heater lights stereo) but nothing to the ignition.is there a fuseable link to the starter circut?put on brand new cables to the battery also

 

Hook one of your jumper leads from the negative battery post to the engine block and see if that helps. Sounds like something in the negative battery lead broke between the battery and engine block. Also check your intermediate starter relay located on the fender.

 

what about the neutral safety/ clutch pushed in switch?

time to dig out the test light

 

under the hood drivers side fender theres a big triangle rubber thingy with 4-5 or 6 wires
(cant remember)thats where the fusable links are gently tug on the wires trying to pull them apart if one stretches its bad cut it out and install a new one from the parts store .You can use a piece of wire to test it too

 

sorry about being so slow to get back.just had rotator cuf re done as for the clutch pushed in my truck is an auto.rebal the triangle rubber thing.is that wraped up in the harness running to the front of the truck?

 

is this the silver box on the inner drivers fender?how do i check does it have to be done with a multi meter? what should it read?

 

This link in the sticky shows exactly where it is and what it looks like:

From my gray haired memory I think you can swap that relay with the one next to it to test to see if that's the problem.

 

in the first pic there is three relays i dont have those 3,4 &5 i have one silver elongated relay?

 

did you try hitting the starter, because sounds like what mine did, bad solinoid.
