Wow! What's up now?
Well I guess I just have bad luck or something.
Today I was removing my tranny to fix my clutch and I hadn't unhooked the battery yet and when I went to take the starter out I touched one of the wires and it sparked so I immediately removed the battery cables at that point.
I get the tranny off and back on and when I go to start it, it won't start. All the dash lights come on but the check engine light, brake light and oil light are really dim while the other dash lights are just fine and at the same time there is a super wierd noise coming from my dash on the passenger side, like an electrical sound.
Also, I don't hear the fuel pump priming either and nor does the starter click. And if I turn the car all the way forward to start, the radiator cooling fan comes!?!
I checked all the fuses and they are all fine and tried jumping it off.
What's wrong withmy ish!?!??!?!?

May be time for a new starter. How long did it spark?
Check battery voltage. do you have volt meter? If not take jumper cables. attach them to the battery. take the other ends and quickly tap them together. See if you have a good spark.

Check all your fuses too.

It only sparked for like a millisecond.

Like take the wires off the starter and put them back on? I did that.
I think it's a fuse or relay or something.

Can you try jump starting it?
I know yesterday in my truck I took a drive and after coming home for an hour I went to leave again. It clicked hard then nothing. I took the batt to the parts store and they tested it, and it was bad. They prorated it, brought home and installed and it's all good.
Hopefully it's something that simple, You've had a rough time here, you deserve a break :D

I did try to jump it off and it does the same thing.

No because it's more work. I had to pull them all the way out of the car and then put them back in.
Yes them as in more then one time.
Don't ask me why. At least I didn't put the disc in backwards.
Sorry, couldn't pass that one up...LOL
Don't ever feel bad about doing something stupid on the car. We all have done most stupid things.
Even Earl told me he left the rotor out of the Dizzy one time, I didn't feel so bad after that. That's two times I know of...

Could have fried the ecu. Could have fried the battery.
Did you check all fuses? I would replace the starter fuse anyway because some times a blown fuse looks good.

Be sure you attach the ground that goes from the frame rail to the tranny! That fixed it! Thanks, buddy, I got into a rush and didn't hook this one up! Another for me!
Now the clutch won't engage at all!
