i had a similar problem myself on my 1988 Jeep wrangler.i checked to see if i was getting a spark from the ignition coil and was not.after clount hours of changing various parts it came to me.the ignition module was the culprit.changed it and we were good to go
Sounds like a starter issue. Bad wire to the starter could cause it.
If you hear a clicking sound when you turn your key, or it starts some of the time but not all the time, probably a starter issue. Best to take off the starter and have your local parts store test it. Chances are the starter bearings are shot, time for a new or reman starter.
Take the steering column housing off (usually held by 4 screws from the bottom) and remove the starter cap from the back of the ignition cylinder. In a Nissan, the ignition cylinder usually has a T shaped pin which turns the starter. if you can start your vehicle by turning the starter cap with a screw driver, you probably don't have an issue with the starter.
There isn't much information in that question. Is it cranking? If not, it could be battery, battery terminals, starter, keyswitch, neutral safety switch... who knows what else. If it's cranking but not catching, always go back tot he basics; compression, ignition and fuel. If any one of the three isn't there, it won't run. First and easiest, check the ignition. Find a spare sparkplug, pull a single plug wire from the engine, connect the sparkplug to the wire, lay the plug on a solid piece of metal and crank the engine to see if you have a good strong spark. If not, track it down. If you have spark, go on to fuel. Try a little starting fluid to see if you can get it to start briefly. If it starts with starting fluid you probably have a fuel delivery problem. If it won't start with starter fluid run a compression test.
Yes, summer weight oil can get too thick in the cold and prevent the engine from turning over fast enough to start. This is a big problem in many diesel cars and trucks. The question simply doesn't have enough information; but after all it is being asked in AUGUST so I seriously doubt thick oil is your actual problem. If the engine turns over too slowly to start, check out the starting circuit - battery, cables, starter solenoid, starter - and you'll probably find the problem (if slow cranking is the issue). Alternately, it depends on how the problem began (slow cranking). Could be a bearing almost seized up or some component in the serpentine belt drive that is already seized up (release tension on the belt to determine if that is the problem by releasing the idler (tensioner) pulley and dropping the belt loose before cranking. GOOD LUCK.
umm...my best guess would be to take it to a shop!
Check to see if you have an exhaust leak onto the starter. An overheated starter is one issue. Check the ignition timing Check that the fuel pump works when cranking engine Check for spark when cranking These can all be caused by heat.
Have you checked your starter? If it clicks but does not turn over this is probably the issue. If you have a pipe, lug wrench, or retractable baton(my preference), tap the starter housing a few times pretty hard. Tapping the casing may help un-seize(?) your starter gear which is preventing the starter from cranking. The ultimate correction for your problem though would be testing your starter and possibly replacing it. Have you checked your starter? If it clicks but does not turn over this is probably the issue.

I guess that the first would be that your car wont start. Otherwise look for slow cranking, spinning but not engaging the flywheel, grinding noises, or possibly a click but no turn but that is more often a battery connection issue or solenoid.
If the 1996 Dodge Intrepid will not start, there might be an issue with the battery or the starter. This could also be a problem with the solenoid or the fuel gauge or fuel pump. The problem and the fix will vary depending on whether the car is completely dead or is cranking when the ignition is turned.
no
Starters can overheat because they are cranking for too long - It takes an enormous amount of amperage which = power and heat, to crank over some of the older motors- Or, the engine is stuck and the starter is trying to draw more amperage, which, creates heat, to turn it over. 10 seconds of cranking at a time is recommended with a few seconds for cooldown. If your engine won't start in that amount of time, you probably have an air/fuel delivery issue, or a weak battery that cannot turn the engine fast enough, or a bad ignition system.
You might have an issue with the 4wd shifter location, and the 93 has a foot brake instead of a hand brake, but it will probably go.
if the starter is spinning but not engaging then the bendix (starter teeth) is not moving out to grab the flywheel teeth or the flywheel has some broken teeth. The starter needs to be removed to see what the issue is.
Sounds like a starter issue. Bad wire to the starter could cause it.
Spark plugs could be the issue. Might also be the starter but I don't know about cars. I really think the starter must be out but it could also be the alternater. Best to go to a mechanic and get it checked out.
Could also be a battery issue, starter issue, starter solenoid, starter relay, neutral safety switch issue, even loose or dirty battery connections could cause that condition. You will have to do some detective work and use the process of elimination technique.
