Yesterday I changed the water pump. After reassembly I went to start the car and it wont crank at all. I checked the starter and its good. I get 12v to the starter but no voltage at the starter when the key is turned. I did not touch or disconnect any wires prior to doing the water pump. Does anyone have any ideas? I'm stuck.

 

How did you check the starter?

If you don't see 12V at the starter when you turn the key, then it's either a bad ignition relay or a bad ignition switch.

Check ALL the fuses too.

 

I checked all the fuses. All good. Where is the ignition relay and is it possible that it happened after the water pump or is it strange coincidence? Also where is the ignition switch?

 

Also when I jumped the starter the car cranked but wouldn't start with the key in the on position.
