Starter Problems After Changing Oil Filter
Hi there
I set out to change my oil and oil filter today and have created more problems than I've solved. I successfully changed the oil/oil filter, but broke my oil pressure sensor in the process which I replaced. I also accidentally disconnected two alligator clamps that were attached to two bolts on the starter and also attached to the plastic cap of my coolant cap (not sure what/of these are doing anything). I touched part of my oil filter removing tool to the starter at some point and saw a small spark. Now my XJ won't start at all... I'm not sure what to do or where to start.
Anyone have any ideas why my starter isn't working?
