California Nut case

Wow, I spent a lot more than that. I think I paid $150 for it from Amazon. Funny thing is now the motor runs and all my running lights quit. That should be a lot easier to find. Weird part is that all the fuses are good, and it was working while the engine would not start. Go figure.

Do you by any chance have two wires going to the motor ground from the wiring harness by the starter?

Dave, You nailed it. I had pulled two smaller wires to the starter that apparently were ground leads to the engine block. I took them off the starter and ran them through a small ground wire just in case, and it immediately did the warm up sequence and then started. I still need to check the wires to make sure that both of them go to the ground, but that is what looks like the problem. Thanks very much for your insight. Next time I better pay better attention to the wires when I take them off.

Dave, Thankyou for the reply. I've checked all the fuses and tested and swapped around the relays. I can hot wire the relays and the pump and fan run fine. I appears that the ECU is seeing some sort of error condition that will not allow it to start. I am new to the trooper world but have been wrenching for years. Not to good with the computer control stuff.

I have a 2008 trooper 1100 T2 which ran great, but the starter would not engage for a lot of clicks. I changed out the starter, careful to note one wire on the solenoid and 4 wires on the main starter motor post. After I finished, the start sequence where the two gages sweep back and forth and the fuel pump and fan turn on for 3 second, stopped working. I can not find any bad or loose wires, I tried changing out the ECU and can not find anything apparently wrong. Does anybody know what sensor error stop the initiation sequence.?

I have a 2008 trooper t2 1100. I changed out the starter and now it will not do the 3 second warm up and start. Are their any shops in California that will still diagnose a Joyner Trooper, or does anybody know which signals can cause the warm up sequence to not go?

Guys I am new to the trooper, but it ran fine until I changed the starter. Now it will not do the 3 second warmup of the fuel pump and fan. What sensors will stop this initiation function.
