Well look at that. One of my favorite youtubers, especially for GMT 800 vehicle info has a likely solution for me. Thanks man. Going to try the relay swap next time it acts up.
Hope it works for you 🙂
@@AnthonyJ350 Well it wasn't the relay, few taps on the starter gets it going. Probably worn brushes or corrosion/solenoid.
@@silentbravo Time for a new starter
OMG THANK YOU SO MUCH, this is the only video out of hundreds that I've watched that actually help me diagnose the problem and fix it by myself without anyone else thank you so much
That's awesome! What ended up being the problem with your truck?
I did the relay swap but still had no power going to the starter solenoid with key in start position. I then discovered it was a bad 10amp fuse labeled “CRANK” located in the fuse panel inside of the cab on the left side of dash.
Thanks for sharing this!
I didn’t see no crank fuse
Also helped me before
@@MarcoS-fb3qr on the back of the fuse cover it will say “10A(crank) “
man thank you so much i just changed it and boom it started instantly
Thanks for the great info on getting my 2004 Silverado started. I had power to the solenoid, but still no start. I used the tapping of the solenoid and it started right up. I've been chasing this problem for several years. Time for a new starter!
So glad to hear the video was able to help you!
Thank you! Thank you! Thank you! I thought I was dealing with a starter issue, but it turned out to be the starter relay. Fifteen bucks at Autozone, and I'm riding fine again.
So glad to hear this fixed your truck!
Just bought an 04 Silverado 2500 HD, small dealership. Took it down the street to get gas and after it wouldn’t start up. During my inspection all went well. I overlooked the fuses, something simple as that can cause the truck to not turn on in my situation. I was mad thinking I just got played . I’m solo about an hour away, towing my 1st truck back and now the 2nd truck won’t start and it was really hot outside lol. Thank you for uploading
Let us know how things go with the truck
Great insightive video ur only one who mentioned relay swap! Which was my problem so time for whole relays purchase and swap thx
So glad to hear the video helped you!
Thank you, sir! I thought it had to do with the after-market alarm. It was the starter. Thank you again and God bless you!
Glad the video helped you!
I watched your video and to my amazement this worked. Much appreciated for your time and dedication for this tip. Thanks again 👍
What was the problem with your vehicle?
Great video. My 04 just started doing this and I'm an industrial mechanic, previous tractor trailer mechanic and have rebuilt old Cummins big cam 3 engines. I really didn't want to throw a starter at it just guessing. Mine will crank after trying 5-20 times. I originally thought neutral (park) safety switch. It hasn't started in neutral for a year, only park. Didn't think of the relay. I'll check that next time it messes up. Thank you!
Also mine went 2 weeks fine and then did this twice this weekend. I'll post updates.
Let us know what you find please.
@@mystop8Any updates? I'm having the same intermittent problem. Sometimes it'll start right up. And sometimes I have to try 20 times before it does.
So I was stuck in a parking lot and was able to jump the relay to the positive battery cable and start my truck to get back home, it started normally a few times after but now it’s back to no crank, does this narrow it down to something? A reply would be greatly appreciated
Did you replace the starter relay?
Ran into that same situation on my 99 gmc sierra, found out the wire from the starter that goes to the solenoid was broke. Had enough wire left to solder a small battery terminal on it.
Glad to hear you fixed it!
I love finding that one video a day after getting my 07 fixed lol. only $160 to figure out it was a $15 dollar relay.
At least the video helped confirm it?
Dude came in clutch
What was the fix for you?
if the problem is intermittent ? can the relay still be the problem ?
Quite possibly yes.
Yes, relays can stick and goof up.
The issue I'm having is my truck will usually start with no issues. Other times, it takes about 20 tries before the truck turns over. I've replaced the starter thinking that was it. It wasn't. I was starting to think my starter wire needed replacement. But this would be a while lot cheaper and easier. Are the symptoms I'm describing what you're targeting in this video?
They are
This is very informative and helpful my guy! My big question is, where is the starter located in a 2011 GMC Sierra? I was told it was on the passenger side but im not 100% sure? And do i need to go underneath or can i navagate through the wheel well?
Yes it's on the passenger side. You might be able to see it through the wheel well.
To replace it's easier from underneath.
@AnthonyJ350 I thought I was. A buddy of mine told me it's behind the engine bay underneath on the drivers side but I think that might have been the wrong area
I also tried fooling around with the fuse box and that didn't help much either. I do have another small fuse area next to my steering wheel but I don't know where to start on that. I'm trying to avoid having it looked at lol but if I have to then I have to
With mine I have to turn the key over and over until it will finally start imma use these tips.
Let us know if anything from the video helped you.
@@AnthonyJ350was the starter solenoid , so I replaced the starter just if anyone has the same issue
@@Titoo.1 Thanks for sharing your experience!
@@Titoo.1Similar issue. Randomly will have no start but after continuous trying eventually does. Swapped relays too but can hear and feel the relay working when my son turns the key and still nothing. I think the relay is past the neutral safety switch so I’m guessing bad solenoid or bad signal wire/connection. Tempted to run a 12v push button switch from in the cab to the relay to try to manually feed it a 12v signal to know for sure if the solenoid is acting up or not lol.
My 2001 Lb7 will start if I open up the starter relay and press it but not with the key … I’ve replaced the ignition switch and the lock cylinder .. what do you think?
Neutral position safety switch maybe?
i have a 2003 GMC Yukon Denali and sometimes it wont crank and most of the time it does , cant figure out what the issues is
Change the starter relay and see if it gets better.
Mine won’t start with the key but if I put the relay in without the key it will try to start but if I turn the key in start position then put the relay it starts then I have to take the relay out for it to run at a cool idle
Thanks for sharing
Nutral safety switch?
Thank you that was the problem on mine to I appreciate it ❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️
It was the starter relay?
So the fuse relay box in the engine compartment in a 99 is different, and if you swap the stater relay and the one closest to it, you will be swapping the ignition relay and the starter relay. If one of them is bad, you won't be able to start regardless, because you need ignition and the starter to start. You can swap the HDLP relay (headlamps) with the starter relay, or swap the HDLP headlamp relay with the ignition to see if either of those is bad, but you have to have a relay in both the ignition and starter positions. Alternatively, you can check just check the individual relays by swapping them into the HDLP headlamp position, and try turning on the lights. If the lights work, the relay is good. But turn off the headlamps while swapping around relays.
Thanks for sharing!
Looked at my fuse box and noticed the 5* ignition 1 gas/essence relay was flipped upside down would that cause the no start no crank also? (Bought the truck a month ago)
Sorry for the late response. Was that your issue or something else?
So this happened with my truck. But what is the issue. Is it a bad starter, relay, solenoid? I need to know what to replace because this is the 3rd time I've had to do this trick to get my truck started. It almost made me late for work today
How did you get it to start? The video is suppose to help you diagnose, there isn't one answer.
I jumped my starter it cranks then dies as soon as it starts. Battery has a draw and it’s no crank no start my key. Even aftermarket remote start won’t start. Start is good. Hope it’s a fuse. Gauges go in and out at random. Any ideas would be greatly appreciated.
What's the battery voltage?
@@AnthonyJ350 getting 12 volts, it’s the pcm unfortunately
@@mikeneff832 RockAuto has them for a reasonable price I think. But may require programming.
My 05 sierra’s starter relay went bad once, replaced and went out again. A new relay won’t crank it, I can crank it manually but my emergency brake won’t disengage. Any knowledge on this problem, cannot find an answer anywhere
Your parking brake and starter won't be related
Can a fuel pump relay cause this problem
I don't think so
It depends, is the truck just cranking? Or no crank?
Thanks for letting us know other issues not solving them your 👍
Did you need me to elaborate on something specifically?
My engine was misfiring on my 2006 Chevy Silverado, I change the spark plugs and plug wires and ignition coil , and clean the distributor cap , I will get a no crank until I unplug the new ignition coil the plug it back in , then it will start but it will have a bad misfire when starting cold then run good after warm up
Distributor cap on a 2006 Silverado?
Mine shows empty fuel gauge (even though it has 10 gallons) sometimes says "service brake booster" and sometimes it turns over, sometimes it doesn't. Sometimes it'll even run great for 3-4 minutes before stalling. I replaced the crankshaft position sensor recently, (and that solved a separate issue) replaced my fuel pump, have a newer battery and alternator, and relocated the ground wire from the passenger side of the engine block. Still doing the intermittent no crank or crank with no start. When it does start and run, the fuel gauge randomly goes from showing empty to showing half full like it should. I have to think it's an ignition or security issue because again, sometimes it just won't even crank. Any suggestions? It isn't throwing any codes.
Mines doing the same thing
@@jasonhashasyan2871 It was the fuel pump relay under the hood, go out there and switch your AC compressor relay for your fuel pump relay and it should start, unless your AC compressor relay is also bad.
This video might help ua-cam.com/video/Dql0Uu8-SNk/v-deo.htmlsi=jef9A5WUMtxrYXnN
I have tried everything from checking the starter, the switch, relays everything still no solution. Thinking it might be wiring issues from under the wheel? Anything will help
You have power at the starter motor and the solenoid wire?
You da man for this video. 🙏🏼
So glad the video helped you! What was wrong with your truck?
I did all this steps i even bought a new battery and starter and still nothing i wonder if it's the ignition switch or the neutral switch
It could be either of the items as well.
I am going to just figure it out
@@josemillan1492Any updates?
If I swapped the relays and it started right up what do I need to replace? Just put a new relay in?
That's correct. Was that your problem?
@@AnthonyJ350 a new relay worked once and then stopped working
I've got a 05 Silverado and it is doing exactly what yours did in the beginning. I have a brand new starter and ignition. I checked my starter and it was getting electricity so my relay can't be the problem. Any ideas? I'm clueless
Both my Ignition fuses are lighting up as well
Did you try tapping the starter with a hammer? ua-cam.com/video/RdUbh-NCMhc/v-deo.html
@@AnthonyJ350 Yes I tapped it with a hammer and still nothing. Like I said since it's new I don't think it's the starter. I forgot to mention that every now and then the truck will crank up one time but if I turn it off it won't turn back on. I'm thinking it could be bad grounding somewhere
@@kennonjohnson4927 Could be the neutral position switch in the transmission
@@AnthonyJ350 After looking at all of my problems I believe that is exactly what is going wrong. Thanks!
Mine is doing something really weird. The gas gauge started reading empty along no crank.
The fuel pump also won't run when cycling the key. Only when jumping at the relay.
So it turns over if I jump the relay. But won't start due to no fuel pump. I'm certain it would if I jumped it as well.
Look into all the grounds on the truck first ua-cam.com/video/Dql0Uu8-SNk/v-deo.htmlsi=ZF8mbfkhxrAicY8X
@@AnthonyJ350 I fixed it. The PCM B fuse somehow just quite passing power even though it's not blown. Probably corrosion on the fuse. Changed the fuse and it fired right up.
@@RodknockRhett Check your grounds. If they're not good it will cause unnecessary heat.
Hi, I have a 2007 Chevy Suburban. It's been down for over 2 weeks now. No crank, no start. No one can figure it out.
I've had a new starter put in. All the fuses checked, batt voltage 12.
No power going to my fuel pump, tail lights, or door locks.
Please help?
Did you check the relay like in the video?
Is the computer functioning?
There's a big fuse on the firewall near the battery. Black box, is the fuse in there ok?
@AnthonyJ350 Relays have been checked.
All of the dashboard lights are on.
Not sure about the big fuse near the firewall. I'll have to ask my mechanic tomorrow.
What does that big fuse do?
@@stephaniemcclung6680 Supplies power to the truck
I have a 2001 gmc Sierra and I replaced the starter and the battery and I still only have one click and nothing else.
Check the starter relay?
Can you help me with 2004 avalanche is blowing ignition A when the key is turned to engage the starter in start position. No issue when it is in the on positioning. Did the relay swap and relay is okay it seems. Wire to starter looks fine .
Can I use solenoid to try and start and it be effective with the main fuse being blown? I’m lost with this point and anything forward. I think all I have left is ignition itself and starter itself right? 😞 this is hard work for a gal lol jk but someone please help me out
@@cerealrakist7360 If you could unbolt the starter solenoid (wrap it with electrical tape so it doesn't tough anything) and try "starting it". If the fuse doesn't blow it's most likely related to the starter.
@@cerealrakist7360 Also which fuse is popping specifically?
Starter
On my Tahoe it clicks and that’s it and if I keep turning the key on and off it will eventually start anything I need to know brand new starter and battery
Get AC Delco starter and battery
I had the same issue like in the beginning of the video. But if i waited a couple of minutes the truck would start up again. What could the problem be?
The relay?
Im stuck on this situation but truck keeps honking when i connect the battery . Whats the reason for that ?
Try pushing unlock after you hook up the battery and it's honking. Also is the battery resting at 12.6 volts
Same thing happened to my 2010 Silverado, never had any problems with it and the last time I drove it on Sunday the gauges were flickering and I couldn’t get on it because it would limit the truck to 15 mph when I got to my destination I went back to my truck a couple hours later it just wouldn’t crank at all
Replaced the battery, checked all the fuses and relays, cleaned my ground wire and 3 days later haven’t found the problem. All accessories turn on but I can’t hear my fuel pump turn on when turn the key
@@builtbychino2473 Check the fuse and relay for the fuel pump?
ua-cam.com/video/BQeu008HBDQ/v-deo.html
Just happened to me on this '03. Went straight to
UA-cam. I tried the fuse trick. Nothing. No hammer on me. Looks like I'm getting a tow!
Did you end up fixing it?
I have a 2007 chevy tahoe 5.3 v8 i have no chime no crank or start
What's the battery voltage?
Thanks man I just had to do that rn thanks again for the video
Glad you found the video useful!
Thanks Man...thats good info
Glad you found it helpful 🙂
I had one the relay was not working because the female side, the car side wasnt making a connection with the relay leads.
Thanks for sharing!
I have a trail blazer that has the same issue, but it made a weird sound before it stopped working while driving.. it was driving pretty bad before that. Now, I don't know if the engine ceased up or not..😣😢😭
Is this ua-cam.com/video/MAKDJoNg3C8/v-deo.html legit!?!?!?!?
It's an 2006
Did you check the oil level? How often does the SUV get oil changes?
@@AnthonyJ350 Yes
@@AnthonyJ350 New alternator.. battery.. starter.. maybe check my relays!?? Which one's?
I’ve replaced all the above and more mine still won’t start from the key but does in fact run
Is the ignition switch broken?
I left my truck for about a week going out of town (running fine) and when I got back it only clicks once when I turn the key, I jumped it twice but again it just clicks when I go to start the truck after turning off from the jumpstart
Probably needs a new battery
Mine won’t start when it’s cold out… like 5 degrees F. I’m gonna try the relay when I get home because starter sounds fine all other times…
Did you test the battery?
@@AnthonyJ350 of course. It was the relay. 👌
@@Kenny_K2323 Glad you figured it out
My truck won’t start but with the remote start does turn on good idk what’s the problem
Could be a problem with the contacts in the key tumbler. Or something is malfunctioning with your starter kill (if one was installed for your remote starter.)
I have no crank at all no click just nothing and when I test starter circuit there’s no lower on control so bought a new safety switch same thing nothing what is it?
Could be the BCM.
I took my car for a remote starter since that the starer die and i replacement for a new one. And the we figure out it was the underground. So we made it crank on and jut took me to one place to other and then again doesn star. After a few hours when the engine got cold. To crank again. 😢
Thanks for the comment
So my gmc Sierra won’t crank at all but starts something weird lol I need help
Start with a new battery and upgrade the grounds.
Man listen I have a 05 gmc Sierra 1500, I took my son to school Friday morning at 7:30, got home woke the wife up and said let’s go get breakfast around 8:30, jumped in the truck not a noise when I turn the key.. help?
Did you watch the video?
Yes I did, and none of it worked for me. I opened and closed my door a few times and turn the key over a few times while doing it and it randomly crunk up
@@bankroll_g Did you tap on the starter solenoid?
@@bankroll_gAny updates?
Thanks
You're welcome
I swapped relays and checked fuses... still nothing
Does it try to crank? Battery and starter motor are good?
I had the same problem for a long time I changed the ignition switch and also the cylinder just to find out was the crank shaft position sensor and problem solved
Glad you figured it out!
I just got my 99 gmc Sierra 2500 out of storage and it wouldnt start and jumped it and started. However then it wouldnt start again after getting gas then i jumped it with a semi ju.p box and started, after that next day wouldnt start. Kid you not i was recording the issue then all the sudden started out of the blue, i left it running and then disconnected the positive battery cable and it started every time. Then today my idiot friend told me it was going to eave me stranded and guess what it did🤬🤯, all day!!! Called insurance at 3:30 pm report it for roadside and it wSnt till dozens of people later the. Telling me i had to wait till tomorrow when i have 2 dogs and 6 more at my friends needed out and i still am ticked.... Anyways thenthey said i had to pay out of pocket and itold them i didnt care if i had a million dollars iwouldnt pay a single penny and i pay insurance every month so i dont have too. They kept arguing i told them they gonna have to pay so the out of service guy she sent to me and i called them and told them i didnt want to waste their time of insurance wasnt paying cuz my ass is broke. However i already had my friend have amother guy come to help although his charger wouldnt work. At the same time he shwed up then the orher people showed up🫣🤣... Well they both said it was my started however its always started by jumping the battery. And it is a walmart junk battery. There was a huge spark wheniwas trytto tighten my cables earlier and i could never get spark after that from no ones cables. The truck started however lightss were dim then they went bright then they shut off and my truck light necer go off. I actually had to turn them on to use them then acter 5-10 minutes of driving they back to always on no matter what. My radio dont work now. Amd forgot to mention i have a whole world armys of mice living in my truck and they chewed up everything so i think its nore of wires are chewed then anything. But i still dont know. You made it look so easy taking those relays out 🧐.. im scared to shut it off or even go take it to get tested. What are your thoughts? Just replace all the relays or switch em all over to dofferent spots?????? Nornally starters give you some sign but this is a chevy/gmc. Also when he said it was the starter cuz it only had one click, they tapped it with a hammer and it still wouldnt start. Ony when he used the semi jump box.
Check all the wiring for rodent damage, upgrade the grounds from battery to motor, chassis and battery. I would also put in a new AC Delco Gold battery.
my relays are 4 and 5 prong
Thanks for sharing!
Ive changed 2 crankshaft position sensors, one ignition, tow haul doesnt work, sometimes starts immediate sometimes hard and a backfire ish. Idk shit hurts my soul i love my 6.0 273100just passed today on er.. fuckin help
Watch this whole video ua-cam.com/video/Dql0Uu8-SNk/v-deo.htmlsi=50Ron_nriDVqnedh
Check the small ground on the back of the engine block under the intake manifold.
It don't crank like the fuel pump no power and no nothing Brandy starter
What's the battery voltage? Is the battery tight?
Somebody Sue them so this will stop
Can't really do that with older vehicles that don't have warranty. I'm showing a 19 year old truck in the video.
Maybe it's just me
Weird video
Thanks for watching
No way ur dash got 200 mph
Cluster is in kilometers.
I changed the starter and it's still blowing the ignA 40a jcase fuse. I was starting one night it turned over twice blowed the fuse. Hasn't turned over since blows the fuse as soon as turn to crank even after putting new starter on it. Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated.
It is an 05 tahoe
The battery cable to the starter motor might be corroded. I would investigate and possibly replace.
@@AnthonyJ350 I appreciate the advice. It ended up being a bad ground strap. The braided one on the back of the motor to the body. Added a new one from body stud to new clean location right below next to the alternator.
