92 gt 5.0 engine will not turn off

Probably a bad ignition switch. Pull the batter cables off.

[gbiascoechea]

allready changed it out as well as replaced selenoid

[Drick]

Rip every wire out that runs to the engine its bound to turn off

[gbiascoechea]

maybe starter is bad?

Sounds like a bad solenoid even though you replaced it. does the starter constanly crank or does the motor just not shut off. You turn the key off and it stays running clear and normal

[gbiascoechea]

kind of hard to tell, she does not sound right

[gbiascoechea]

the selenoid that i replace was the fire wall not the battery

Yeah thats the one im talking about. But if your soleniod goes bad it will constantly crank the starter

You need to find out why. Test the small wire that connects to the solenoid. Is it hot contstantly or just when the key is turned to start?

my 90 lx had a recall on the ignition switch, i think that was the problem for the recall....

[89LX347]

do you have an electric fan or anything like that?

[gbiascoechea]

found out the problem, ground wire on starter

Ground wire on starter? What ground wire is on your starter? It shouldn't be there......which I'm assuming was the problem. The starter grounds itself to the block.

you don't ever wanna do that if you can avoid it because it could potentially fry your ecu. pull your fuses for fuel pump instead.

I've never heard of that and I've been involved in the idustry for 12 years.

Not a ground wire.

If u pull the battery cables off while the car is running i think it has to do with grounding the ecu. Ive done it before i knew what it could do. the car will still run for awhile, but the computer now has no grounds but the alternator is still putting out a charge... it's something like that...
