Definitely your starter solenoid bro, make sure that’s the part of the starter that you’re hitting when you go to lay hands and tools upside it lol. For anyone that doesn’t know, the solenoid is the smaller unit that’s usually on top of the starter, looks identical otherwise but 1/3 to 1/2 the size…will have a few wires attached. It’s almost always the culprit of starter struggles
IN SOME OF THE G6S YOU HAVE TO CHECK YOUR SHIFT LINK THEY GO OUT SOMETIME AND IF YOUR CAR IS NOT READING IT'S IN PARK IT WON'T CRANK UP PUT IT IN NEUTRAL OR DRIVE AND THEN TRY TO CRANK UP
My neighbor lady called one day says she is at the mall and the car won't start. I get there and as she is getting out of her car I say no get back in. I tell her to put the car in neutral and start the car. She has a questioned look on her face as starts her car. All she needed to do was get the Pontiac garage to readjust the start position on the shifter console. She was amazed and happy and I was glad to help.
My g6 does this every once in awhile. I unhook the positive terminal wait 30 seconds and put it back on. And it starts right up. Them GM's are bad about bad grounds
In my case it was the shifter link cable snapped in half so leaving the car stuck in M2 and not park hopefully this saves you guys time cuz I don't think he ever gets to the point
While one persona holds the key in the starting position, hit the starter from a safe angle as the car might being to start. If it does, REPLACE the starter.
I got a Pontiac G6 2007 change the fuse for the radio have my tester with me connected to the ground touched a hot wire and half on my board don’t want to turn on I got a couple of things to turn on headlights honk but my car won’t start what can I look for
It could be the Car security system not recognizing your Key. I had an issue with a GM vehicle where I couldn't figure out why it wouldn't start, changed a bunch of shit out and come to find out it was the factory car security system.
Driving my pontiac just did the down payment work just fine other than the brake lights didn't shut off until I hit the break few seconds it came back on. However few miles later my dash when black I stopped the car turned it off, tryed to start an wouldn't start. So we knew it wasn't battery bc we just bought a brand new one few hrs b4 that. We try a jump nothing just a click, had to tow it home.
After it starts up take the negative cable off the battery. It it keeps on running, your alternator is good or you can test out the voltage with the car running. Should be around 14...
Starter needs a heat shield if it gets too hot it won't start because it's close to the catalatic converter I have the same car it happened to me I had to replace my starter
I have a Pontiac G6 2007 and I drove all the way to LA back to Orange County and the car stopped about a mile before I got home went to go get it off the freeway the next day and it started right up now I’ve replaced the fuel pump tried to start it went good for three days stop me again I wonder if that is the starter as well everybody is telling me to get rid of the car it’s at 170,000 miles please help me. The battery is dead. I changed the fuel pump.
It's not the starter if it died out on you. Try cleaning your battery terminals and make sure they are tight. Test out your alternator and starter at autozone to see if the output is normal. Try running a line from the alternator to the battery if the alternator is good. Check your ground wire to make sure that it is free of corrosion and connected to the frame.
I had the starter changed and it started right up . Went to autozone and now I need new intake manifold gaskets.. 🤦🏽♀️ go figure. When it rains it pours.
@@treezalynn1 Any codes? I have 0171 & had a guy just come out and tell me it's the oxygen sensor. I'm starting the cheaper route first 😂 I Just purchased the downstream sensor. We shall see.
Anyone figure it out I turn my car key and nothing just click I changed stater,coil mod, ignition,switch,cylinder, alternator,fuse,block engine harness,3batteries,I'm going crazy anyone know a bypass or anything thanks
@@roberttemple9899 If you have 12v accessories in the 12 volt socket disconnect them. Also try this. Take the serpentine belt off and try to start it. Sometimes a seized pulley can freeze everything.
Hello my name is Maria and right now I'm tired I'm crying because I got the same car like you and he's doing the same thing they did to you I already changed the battery I will change the alternator and it doesn't start at all I don't know what I'm going to do right now I can walking from the store I left it over there because I don't have no money no more and I don't know how I'm going to turn it back again I just need a little help over here please and tell me what to do thank you I appreciate it
I already did this whole elimination process in 2 minutes... hoping this 1 click fixed part was in the video. Instead I'm watching an exhausted fellow having a hard time even speaking for 16 minutes. Omg my life is ruined daylight has wasted... so many tears ! Im just a whiney ass bitch because my car ain't starting. Thanks for trying Peter L.

I just had a transmission fracture recall on my 2007 Pontiac G6 which GMC took care of. They also had the recall on the brake lamp. So they took care of that my car will not start the battery’s dead everybody’s telling me just get rid of the car I bought it from an auction last year and I put 20,000 miles on it plus

Dude, this video without a doubt it made me throw my phone so now I need a new phone and car

Hey bro that didn't help me at all but it was really funny thank you so much
LET ME SAVE YOU SOME TIME spoiler alert
***ITS THE STARTER***
While one persona holds the key in the starting position, hit the starter from a safe angle as the car might being to start. If it does, REPLACE the starter.
Does he ever say how to reset it?
It was the starter.
Saved 16 minutes of story time.
You're welcome.
Tap your starter with a wrench or a hammer one click is starter fast click is battery or alternator
Just put in a new starter on my friends and still only a click
@@jgorka13 check your fuses and relays also does your battery have enough voltage
@@cullencanavin5523 found the culprit. A wire harness was tore up in a hidden. Spot
@@jgorka13 starting up ? Probably didn’t even need that starter then lol
@@cullencanavin5523 yup started right up when I connected em. I told her get the starter checked when she brought it In.... she apparently did not lol
I replaced my battery, starter, and alternator. It’s still doing the same thing. Made appointment with the car dealership
I got the same situation happening to my car did you find out the cause of it did u fix it ?
2007 cobalt 2.2 5speed standard
Turn the key, nothing happens. But it will pop start and run just fine
The situation is your wasting everyones time absolutely unhelpful to me
I got a Pontiac G6 2007 change the fuse for the radio have my tester with me connected to the ground touched a hot wire and half on my board don’t want to turn on I got a couple of things to turn on headlights honk but my car won’t start what can I look for
I have the same problem did you figure it out
I put in a fuse for the radio and now it won't start or anything.
This really could have been a 45 second story
one click is usally starter click cick click is battery!
if it’s not any of the problems he said then it could be your catalytic converter being clogged or needing to be replaced
It could be the Car security system not recognizing your Key. I had an issue with a GM vehicle where I couldn't figure out why it wouldn't start, changed a bunch of shit out and come to find out it was the factory car security system.
How do u switch it out ???
How you fix the issue?
Mine won't start! It's annoying.
try your starter relay
Is a 2007 G6 i turned it off went into the store and came out and it wont start. Just 1 click. 😢 im about to lose my job
Driving my pontiac just did the down payment work just fine other than the brake lights didn't shut off until I hit the break few seconds it came back on. However few miles later my dash when black I stopped the car turned it off, tryed to start an wouldn't start. So we knew it wasn't battery bc we just bought a brand new one few hrs b4 that. We try a jump nothing just a click, had to tow it home.
Alternator
What was the problem did you find out
Just replaced starter and battery and it starts up will drive a few blocks then quits. Do I need a alternator?
After it starts up take the negative cable off the battery. It it keeps on running, your alternator is good or you can test out the voltage with the car running. Should be around 14...
Starter needs a heat shield if it gets too hot it won't start because it's close to the catalatic converter I have the same car it happened to me I had to replace my starter
Gm did a horrible job with the make of this car
Hey did you have to use shims with your starter? Thx for the vid it was very detailed.
You could have done a 30 second video. Jesus Christ

No wonder the conversation lasted 45 minutes lol you can talk your ass off dude
My car is doing this now. 1 click. Tried banging the starter and nope it didnt start.
Starter. I'm having the same problem.

@@treezalynn1 oil getting into your spark plugs? I had that problem before too.
Bro u taking entirely to long to get to the point I have an abundance of useless information
Anyone figure it out I turn my car key and nothing just click I changed stater,coil mod, ignition,switch,cylinder, alternator,fuse,block engine harness,3batteries,I'm going crazy anyone know a bypass or anything thanks
Relay?
I'll try that next

My g5 just was on yesterday now it not starting
Mine is 1 click and now it says locked 😢
I'm having the same problem with my Pontiac G6 happened last night to me
Did you fix it
My problem was the brain box .. it's fixed now
@@maryjones6580 how did you fix it and how much did it cost
I just got mine two days ago I was messing with the radio and it triggered my anti theft. My car won't start
That's great.. good luck
You talk so much and say nothing
Mine doesn’t even give me light atm
Get to the point you sick at making videos
If it's still not working. What needs to be done.
I feel after listening to all the crap I am now dumber for have listened to all that
Take all of your radio fuses out and it'll crank when you get a jump
It’s a bad ground
Hey bro mines just stop today ????
This is painful to watch
Talllllllkkkkkking took much
This is crazy you’re talking for so long can the next video you just get to the problem/point
Hello my name is Maria and right now I'm tired I'm crying because I got the same car like you and he's doing the same thing they did to you I already changed the battery I will change the alternator and it doesn't start at all I don't know what I'm going to do right now I can walking from the store I left it over there because I don't have no money no more and I don't know how I'm going to turn it back again I just need a little help over here please and tell me what to do thank you I appreciate it
Battery, loose or corroded battery terminal, fuses or relays. ..starter...
Try testing those out...
It could be a shift cable
Dude you gave me a headache.
Talkin to dam much about nothing. Geesh I’ll just walk
Bro u literally have no point to this video
Hey rainman
Tap on the starter
I already did this whole elimination process in 2 minutes... hoping this 1 click fixed part was in the video. Instead I'm watching an exhausted fellow having a hard time even speaking for 16 minutes.
Omg my life is ruined daylight has wasted... so many tears ! Im just a whiney ass bitch because my car ain't starting. Thanks for trying Peter L.
Talk to much and repeat same sh_T over and over! So I think to myself ?WHAT?
You are so brutal
Your car overheated it will happen again
Come on man. Get to the point
Bro this whole video is pointless
We wasted a lot of time listening to you ramble. Don’t watch this video
Wasted 18 min of my life just here uhh um won’t start idk um uh 👎
You talk so much
lousy video........get to the point !!!!! nice trying though !!
Hey bud, get yourself together.. then make a video… 🤦♂️
😭
I had the same problem. Replaced the battery. Turned the ignition on and the lights, AC, radio came on but as soon as I cranked it to start, everything shuts down. 1 click and dies.
Disconnected battery and connected again and car powers up again.
Mine was a simple fix actually. My shifter moves so I played with the shifter a bit and eventually put it back on park. Cranked the car again and boom it started.
For some reason the car was thinking it was left on drive on the shifter.
👌👍👍 this worked. So do you know if the shifter has to be replaced?
If your shifter isn’t tight /secure in park it will trigger the neutral safety switch on the transmission which is effectively a “kill switch”…
I just had a transmission fracture recall on my 2007 Pontiac G6 which GMC took care of. They also had the recall on the brake lamp. So they took care of that my car will not start the battery’s dead everybody’s telling me just get rid of the car I bought it from an auction last year and I put 20,000 miles on it plus
