- This video is part one of finding an electrical problem that caused a "no crank" and "no fuel pump" condition on a 1999 Saturn SC2. It shows a common problem at the F5 pin connector at the Passenger Side Junction Block. Mr. Mobile gives props to user "nick.evans" on www.SaturnFans.com for posting pictures and written explanation about this repair.

This HAS to be my problem. Recently bought a Saturn sw2 from a buddy that had a sub in it (now removed) and the day I went to buy it we had crank but no start. I took the time to throw a fuel pump in and same issue. Found no power going to the fuel pump fuse and replaced the fuse block but it was the wrong fuse block so we swapped the old one back in and now we can even get the thing to turn over. God I hope this is it never buying a cheap car again.
Please report back. I’m glad this video helped.
I have a 1999 saturn sc2. Im having problems in that area..Relay seems to be too hot. Video helps im going to remove the box and check it out.
Thanks
Good luck with the repair. Remember that electricity generates heat, no matter the voltage. Heat and corrosion at contact points are common. Don’t be scared of 12V. It won’t shock you until you get into the ignition system. Even then it’s just unpleasant. It won’t kill you. Household 120V is another story. Your test light is your best friend so invest in a good one. Always verify your ground circuit. Electricity is a circle. You need a good positive and a good negative. Verify both. Please report back Doug.
Change the starter relay.
Would that also effect my dash lights and make my tail lights randomly pop a fuse like even if I do replace fuse I usally never have dash lights but I have tail lights recently I have no crank issue
That one circuit supplies The ignswitch the stereo and lighter?
I don't remember but that sounds right.
Sorry about the poor video quality!
Mr. Mobile inadvertently said that this wire feeds or supplies power to the "Start" circuit. This is incorrect. More to come after the repair.
What is that part called? Fuses connects to circuit "s
It's in the fuse box console. Watch the video. Basically the plastic box gets hot and the plastic gets deformed from the heat, then it interferes with a good connection.
"Come on dude" I don't see a link to the website you describe in the video so evidently I'm not getting it or you're not?
So how do you replace this?
I just cleaned up the contacts real well (with emory cloth) and made the connection good again. I also advised my client to run a separate/dedicated circuit to her radio and she did.
Oh, I forgot to ask, would my Saturn SC1 have the same ignition cylinder lock switch as your SC2?
No idea. Easiest way to figure that out is to call a parts store. They'll be able to tell you.
Can you look at my sisters Saturn in Everett
Call 206-930-7788 to make an appointment. Your sister should call because we'll need information about the car and the problem it's having.
99 saturen sw1 same problem but my fuse bol os brand new nd still wont crank
ever get your issue fixed?
Greetings. I realize your site is dated Oct 2015, but, I figured it wouldn't hurt to ask. I have a 1999 Saturn SC1 with an ignition problem. At times my key would stick. Other times it would not turn over the engine even though it would turn on the dash lights, etc. Still other times, my windshield wipers won't turn off, and at times my blinkers won't function. Would changing my ignition cylinder lock, perhaps repair some type of short I may have in my car. Or, please tell me what my problem most likely may be? I would appreciate it a lot. I am a recent stroke victim and need to help in that I am a little mentally slow now. Any help would be nice. Thank you.
There is just no way to tell. We don't diagnose through phone calls or the internet. We'd hate to give out false information. 12V electricity can be tricky. When it's intermittent like you have then there is probably a bad contact somewhere. Hopefully you have it figured out my now.
You describe the website as Saturn naola cannot find that website
Cut the white wire takes 5 mins
No idea what you're talking about. Try not to post misleading information. Thanks.
BCM Module, I'm chasing a no crank, no start, no gauges on a 05 ion quad door. Turned to start, o KY thing that happens is the lower left relay clicks, interior fuse block/BCM. All fuses, battery, starter, safety system, clutch switch all good. Pulling the BCM, to check for something like this. My first Saturn, nice little car 80k miles. And also new ignition switch, with key relearn. Thanks for the video, hope I find something like this. Just not sure if these models suffer from this. 👍👍🏁🏁
Hmmmm. Tough one. Do you have a good test light? That's your best friend when trying to find an electrical problem. Also you should have a wiring diagram handy. And the very most important fact that too many people forget or don't realize is that electricity, be it 110V or 12V, is dependent on good connections on BOTH positive and negative connections. Electricity has no where to go if you have bad ground(s). I will typically use my good set of jumper cables to establish a good ground for my test light. One other thing - have you plugged a scanner into the OBDII port? And does it power up your scanner when you do? Good luck Michael. Report back when you get it solved.

Scanner lights up and says data link error.
Can you give the exact website please thank you
I can't. Sorry. It's been a very long time since I found it. And it took me quite a while to find it. The only thing I can suggest is listen to what I say in the video because I think I was accurate in the name of the website. I'll listen myself and see if I can find it. If I do I'll post it. Thanks for the question.
It's in my description above. There's even a link. Come on dude!
Here you go but it was in my description.

Thats it exactly... Replace the wire with a lower gage? Bigger fuse? or what?
Run the circuit on a dedicated circuit that you install yourself. Make sure to protect the new circuit with a appropriate size fuse or circuit breaker (circuit breaker is recommended).
