Post by sloyan89 »

i have a 92 mx3 gs... i swapped it from atx to mtx with a 5 spd out of an mx6. car ran fine before but now i get power when i turn the key on but when i turn it to start nothing happens...everythings connected i can jump the solenoid and start the car...is there any wires that ran to the auto shift lever that wouldnt allow it to start? and anything that has to do with the auto tranny?

You need to jump the park/neutral switch, or route it to the clutch switch.

Its two wires on the four pin transmission connector... blue and red? don't quote me on that, check the manuals.

Also, you'll need to wire up your reverse lights.
