all the wires tight and not broken i have seen a few where the nuts were loose and would make intial contact and once it starts to crank it will loose contact. also see where the wire is broken part way through and the vibration from the engine cranking will seperate the wire.

all been checked teminals cleaned

Can you turn the engine over by hand/turning tool?

 

[12vcummins96]

yes i can we barred it over after it happened

If the terminals are molded to the wire the get coroded. Hold the terminal in one had and work the wire in cycles and see if crap falls out. That use to happen on my Dakota. Just trying to help.

i can start the truck with a power probe on the solenoid wire by the fuse box


i just replaced the ignition switch and still no avail
checked the wire after the ignition switch with the ignition switch turned to the start position and get 10.4 volts
im dumbfounded

So at the starter. On the ignition wire with the key turned to crank you have 10.4? On the bolts not the connectors on the end of the wires and does the signal from the key go to the computer then to the starter?

Neutral switch???
