so car was in an accident and after stripping it down and verifying none of the wiring was damaged or cut, that I would attempt to jump it.
NOW, this attempt involved NO BATTERY in the Z but did involve 2 methods.
First: I connected cables to the battery terminals directly "no battery in Z" and other end to a Jeep Battery 810 cold start. SURPrise all the lights and etc worked like normal. So the moment of truth, the start buttom seemed to respond normal and the two position of the button responded so went for the clutch and button and the car ATTEMPED to turn over but quick dead turn over and never even fired the motor up.
Second: I took the battery OUT of my other other car, Ford explorer. Hook cables to battery "which is on the ground and directly to the terminals again and got the same exact result.
I checked the stock Volt gauge and it read 12volts. I would have attempted to place a battery in there but neither SUV batteries would fit and its midnight so no stores to buy one, except walmart but dont like going there at this time lol.
SOooo my question is, AFTER AN ACCIDENT is there somesort of safety feature that disables the 370z from starting up? This involved airbags coming out, steering wheel bag, and ripped an entire wheel of the car with hub and spindle. Again, I am just not sure if something like that even is in our cars but figured I'd ask. Also could a sensor or a knock sensor cause this??? Ive never had airbags come out so also I think perhaps airbag modeule or airbag sensor of some sort may be causing my problem?? If so any way to by-pass it to test motor??
Help me and Ill love you forever
