My car is not recieving power from the battery.

Asked by kapua1994 Jan 20, 2013 at 05:44 PM about the 1994 Chevrolet Camaro Coupe RWD

Question type: Maintenance & Repair

I had two spark plugs on the wrong coil
when i turned on my car i didn't notice till it
shut off. The car still had power when i
turned the key to "on" all power was lost. I
started the car again by using direct power
to turn the engine with key in the on
position. Again it worked then shut off. My
car is now completely off. The battery is
good at 80 percent and terminals are clean.
Any ideas?

disconect battery (for 5 mins to reset the computer) then reconnect and start again............... you could be experiencing the infamous ignition white wire issue. Wire breaks.... car wont run. Its in the steering column..

I have a 1989 Camaro RS V6. On my way home from work yesterday I noticed that all my guages are floating the speedometer was bouncing around between 60 and 70 sporadically. The temperature gauge, oil gauge, rpm and gas gauge were all floating around when I slow down they all start coming back down? For just a second I smelt a very strong burning smell (electrical) that very quickly faded. The SES light has been on constant the whole time this is happening. Same thing was happening on the way to work this morning car is running and driving just fine. I guess today when I get home I can check the codes to see what codes I get as a starting point and work my way from there. I will also check the ground wires to see if maybe I am not getting good connection somewhere. Could it be my battery by chance? Maybe even a stripped wire somewhere?Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks! 4 Answers
