Default Help!

93 GCL. Won't start. Turn the key, fuel pump doesn't come on. Leave it for a while, and we can hear the ASD relay clicking. After it clicks awhile we can hear the fuel pump come on. Still won't start. Started once, but only when the security and check engine lights come on.

Switch the relay like mentioned, check battery connections and clean them if needed. I think the PCM and most of all the important stuff grounds back through the Neg cable, there is also another ground right by the battery at the inner fender.

Ok, thanks. My uncle is thinking it's a bad ground to the ASD. But he can't find it.

PCM has its own ground on the pass. side engine block. Maybe check wiring to fuel pump. Beyond that, I would suggest investing in a manual and a meter. I think there is a common ground for the relays under the fuse block. People have had trouble with the connections in and around that block.
