My cars crazy - 6G Celicas Forums

Topic #10199 7 posts Started by stelica85
my car is going insane it ran fine till yesterday then i went to start it and "click" nothing not turning over so i jump it and it runs fine shut it off and it won't start again, so i think alternator, battery, starter, i pull the battery and alternator and they check out. put it all back together and it starts right up over and over.
but nothing works no tach no lights nothing electrical. is this a fuse or is it grounding out somewhere or what i'm clueless and frustrated.
any help would be appreciated
Could be your security system.

Try this
disconnect your battery thingy
put your keys in the ignition turn it all the way but don't start the car
put the battery ring thing back onto your battery
now move your key in the ignition counterclockwise all the way to the left
now turn on the ignition

i found a blown fuse now and i can't get it out its a blue 100 amp fuse and i have pulled as hard as i can and it won't come out is there something special you have to use.
because the others come out just fine and this one has given me tons of grief
also does anyone know if our cars have an external or internal volage regulator
Internal voltage reg.
thats the alternator fuse...those things have a special way of being removed....but i dont remember
ya i figuredi t out you have to remove the box and then undo two screws. i'm an idiot
