change my thermostat ...cant wont start now....

[RaccorR]

ok guys , i have change my thermostat cause my cause was heating too much

i change it , now the car wont even want to start

the car will crank but without doing any fire

i have notive that the fuel pump will not start at all and that the main relay wont click either

so i thinks its the main relay but... when i turn on the key to position 1 , all the light will get on normally except the CHECK ENGINE .... thats strange....


any idea? if the main is dead , will this happen??

Check your t-stat ground.

where is it?

but even if they was a problem with the t-stat , the car should be running anyway , no???

no, it's the ground wire that connects to one of the thermostat bolts....if it isn't there, it won't start, it's that big of a deal
