Replying to: dukecebrelli (Mar 19, 2009 6:26 am) I've got an '02 Intrigue and a problem that I suspect is related to either the starter or the crank sensor. Mine has never stalled while driving, but on rare occasions it won't try to start (it's as if the starter is disconnected, it doesn't even try to crank). I've got power to everything else... Wiring connections to the starter seem fine, I wiggle the connections to the starter and the leads off of the battery (in case there's a connection issue due to corrosion), disconnect the battery and reconnect, but nothing... Then usually about 12-24hrs later, try to start it up for the hell-of-it and it starts right up. works fine for months, then at random it will refuse to start again. Is there anything I should check out (voltage?) or replace (wiring, starter, sensor, other?) even though at the moment it's starting up fine?   Thanks   -jake Replies to this message: dukecebrelli (Sep 16, 2009 1:35 pm) floyd1022 (Sep 25, 2009 12:31 pm)

Replying to: bucknljake (Sep 16, 2009 6:30 am) Well, even if you had a bad sensor, the motor would still try and crank. I just found out recently that the ignition switch they used in these cars (and its sister cars) were known to have connection issues. Not sure, but next time it doesn't send power to the starter, try wiggling the key around while in the start position.   (The proper test would be to use a volt meter to see if power is making it to the starter solenoid from the ignition switch)   -Duke Cebrelli owner infocarcaredelivered.com

Replying to: bucknljake (Sep 16, 2009 6:30 am) IF it makes no notion to start I would say Ignition switch. If it was the crank sensor it would at least try to turn over.   Owned my intrigue for many years now. Replaced it ignition switch twice. Contactors get scorched and burnt inside. I have actually repaired them but don’t even mess with it. They are about 80 dollars at AutoZone.
