how do i do that? sorry to ask

Next time the problem occurs try holding the switch in the start position while you run the shifter between Park and Neutral or a little past, if it will then turn over the problem is in the linkage.

If you jumper across the two large threaded terminals and it turns over, the starter is OK. If so, next ground the spade terminal labeled with a "G", if it then turns over the NSS or its wiring is the problem. If still a no-go, check the spade terminal labeled "I" for power when the key is in the Start position.
Pardon me but my karma just ran over your dogma.

its amazing how they fix you up now! i remember when ER doc's would set your breaks and now they send you some where else.

chargergirl

Had a friend in high school used to motorcross. His parents carried his medical records with them...it was easier. He won the race, didn't break anything for the first time...while walking up to his parents, happy about going to dinner instead of the hospital, he stepped into a hole and broke his ankle...
Trust your Woobie!
