Saab: car, circuit path, battery connection


Question
jerry,i have a 1994 saab 900s it just started fine this mourning now it wont start meaning it wont even turn over but ny radio still works along with every thing else what could this be i checked all the fuses and there fine.

Answer
Rob:
 It is something in the start circuit path, i. e,: The key switch, neutral start switch (automatics only), the starter itself, or a poor/loose connection anywhere along that path, including the battery. (Sometimes a poor battery connection allows low current devices such as the radio to function, but high current devices such as the starter motor not to).

 With a voltmeter it is relatively easy to troubleshoot.
