When I turn the key all the lights/ radio come on. When I push the start button the starter isn't cranking. Looks like battery/ alternator are good. Trying to narrow down to if its the button itself or the starter. Was able to start with push start. Question is are the start buttons known for going bad?

 

do you hear your fuel pump when you turn on the car before the start button?

those have a tendency to go out. I had mine replaced.

 

Hit the starter with a long metal pipe then try. Mine has been sticking lately - luckily being fixed under warranty as was recently replaced during the clutch job

 

It can be push started...

 

I've never heard of the start button failing. Did you have the battery tested or are you just assuming? If the battery is good then check connections again and check your grounds. Also try what Arsenal said if you haven't already.

 

Yes I can hear the fuel pump

 

Checked fuses the manual listed and all good. I'm going to replace the battery since it is past warranty. Going to remove the starter and have it tested at Oreilly.

 

Did you try hitting the starter? Its a PITA to remove

 

lol you can't push start anything if your motor isn't getting fuel.


starter is in the back. don't break knock sensor when you are trying to bang it.
