Subject: HELP, Not sure what is wrong!
Here's the scenario;
Car: 87' 900 Turbo 16v 5spd
Situation: Just got a new starter, new battery, new spark plugs... car
was running sweet!
After a long run on the Garden State Parkway my
alternator belts went.
The place it got towed to replaced the belts, however,
on the drive home
I realized something fishy with all the electrical
components.
When I got home I pulled in the driveway, turned the
car off, then decided to
restart the car. When I went to turn the
key....NOTHING! Headlights, radio,
power windows, etc. worked, ...but no ignition. WHY???
What on earth could be wrong now? Unless it's the alternator itself,
what else in the engine
could it be? I have an obvious feeling it has something to do with
the ignition itself but don't
know enough about it to fix it myself without some sort of direction
or instruction, but I don't
want to get screwed by some rip-off mechanic and pay an arm and a leg.
I have the Hayes
manual for my model but half of it still looks like Chinese to me anyway.
Any suggestions or helpful info would be GREATLY appreciated.
