well the Storm finally gave in last night... it totally shut down no power, no lights nothing!!...(plus i was with 4 girls, drenched becuase we went skinny dipping, i was pissed.) i wonder what it is, i have checked everything, starter, ingnition coil, all the grounds... everytihng i can think of and it all has power just not when i turn the key.
is it the key thingy that isn't working?
this is pissing me off because it feels like i'll never figure it out.
any comments to help a brother out?
thanks

hahahahahaha

EH! · 27 Jun 2008, 10:54 am

hahaha yeah thats probably it...

01mmmz28 · 27 Jun 2008, 11:00 am

Hmmm.....how old is the car? One of the battery cables somewhere down the line might be shot. Not the parts that are visible from the top, just somewhere down the line it might be corroded or have rubbed something for to long and is not getting a good connection. Are ALL the ground wires good to go? That would be my next guess, they may be fuked up along the line somewhere as well. Please keep us updated, I want to hear the outcome of this.

EH! · 27 Jun 2008, 12:59 pm

it's a 1992 it maybe shot but i'm still not sure.
i'll check in a bit and tell you whats up

JGT8229 · 27 Jun 2008, 01:39 pm

lol its just a loose connection, something happen to me. jus had to tighten the wire

EH! · 27 Jun 2008, 03:35 pm

yeah i think it is that, but i've tried every connection... i redid all the ones that go to the battery too..!
i'm stumped
i turn the key and nothing happens what so ever. the battery has 12.5 volts, i have grounds that work the starter has ground but nothing is goin on.

JoseCR7 · 27 Jun 2008, 03:57 pm

Does the key have one of those chips in it or is it to old to have that? If so, could be your key. My original key for my camaro got over used I guess and wouldn't start the car, nothing worked like you are saying....switched to my spare key and she fired right up.
