help plz car won't turn over

Post by zetticustoms »

Hey peoples i have recently purchased a 92 mx-3 gs and i can not get it to turn over. Actually i can't even get the ignition to click so we changed it out and still nothing. However we can turn the head lights on but none of the dash lights will come on. Sorry this is so long but i really need help and i am hopeing that this has happened to someone before and someone knows what is wrong. Any info would be helpful thanx

Check all your fuses both in the fuse box in the interior and the engine compartment.... who knows that might be the problem!

All the ignition components? The no-start could be lots of things, but with a GS I'd bet on the distributor. No idea why the dash lights don't work if it's not a fuse - maybe a relay somewhere?
