No start condition- Help!!
Car is a 79' Chevette. Went to start it yesterday and engine cranked for a split second,then dead. No cranking,no click at solenoid.
Charged battery,showing 12.5 volts,loaded by turning headlights and accesories on for quite a few minutes and still showed good voltage. So battery good. I showed 12.5 volts at starter,and about 11.5-12 at "S" terminal with key being in "start" position. So I figured solenoid no good. I put a new solenoid in today,nothing. Not even a click. I still show same voltage there at "S" terminal with key in start position. This rules out bad neutral saftey switch and ignition switch,correct? I'm stumped! HELP!!
