SR20 s13 swap, starter not cranking.

[kimch99]

Hello, so here's my situation...

I had an s13 shell and swapped a redtop sr20 into it and got it running. Didn't like the shell much (lots of dmg) so I bought a running 240 with a KA in it. This new 240 used to be auto and was converted to manual. I've finished swapping the SR into this new 240. Everything lights up and all my accessories are fully functioning. However, the starter will not crank. I took a multimeter to the starter and it is receiving full power, it's just not cranking.

I'm assuming my problem has to do with my front fuse harness being for an automatic one?

To sum it up. Car was auto and is now manual. Car is now being swapped with an SR. Everything works except the starter will not crank, but starter is getting full power according to my multimeter.

I am 100% sure the SR is in working order, I fired it up last week before pulling it out of the old 240.

Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thank You

Have you checked to see if is getting power to the s terminal(the small wire) when you try to crank it?

Jumped a wire on a grey plug by the fuse box and all is good now.
