240 wont start!!

[jrc90240sx]

OK here it is my car wont start. It doesn’t turn over, it doesn’t make a sound. Battery is good, alternator is good. Pulled starter off today and had it tested and it was good. Tried checking wires but it was not helping. I think it’s an electrical problem I just have to find it.

Here is how it happened, I was drifting with some friend when i went to take a double drift and spun on the second turn and staled the car, I went to restart it and nothing. We ended up having to push start to get it going. I have not had a problem with it tell now.

I am probably going to take it into a dealer tomorrow to have them find the problem and if it’s cheap have them fix it. But I would like to get some insight into what you all can think of.

it could be your inertia switch, but if that were the case i would think the car would still spin over, and to tell you the truth i don't even know if the 240 has an inertia switch.

i had a brain fart if it were the inertia switch then the car would not push off either because it would disable the fuel pump. this one has me stumped.

hmm..well...it starts using the wheels instead of the starter, so the problem is probley around the starter, make sure you didn't shake any wires loose, and that everything is making a good connection.

Got it fixed, it was the last thing that i didnt check. It was the clutch ingament sensor, or atlest i think thats what its called. 13 dollar part, i even told the dealer thats what i thought it was when i told them all the stuff i had checked already. I was just lazy, i didnt look under the dash to see. ended up paying them 80 for the diagnostic and install, so with tax it was about 100. some of the dumb stuff i do. also bought me the factory service manual while i was there, chiltons suck ***.
