CUCV M1009 Blazer won't start

[Aaron101]

I just bought a CUCV M1009 Blazer and it had a problem with the lights, only the head lights work (No tail lights, no turn signals, no brake lights, and marker lights). I replaced the turn signal switch, wiper switch, light switch, and checked all baulbs and fuses. Still no lights.

Also I drove it home, and 10 days later when I went to restart it, it just clicks. Suck! Anyone know why it won't start? I charged the battery, and replaced the solendoid (it came with a spare).

Try tapping on the starter. It could have a dead spot. First tap on like your hiting a egg then work up from there. Just don't hit like you want to knock it off the block.

Thanks, I will try. The 12v solenoid on the firewall that looks like a ford solenoid, does that go to glow plugs or starter?

 

[CUCVLOVER]

The one next to the masterclylinder is for the glow plugs.

thanks, that's what I thought. It seems like the clicking I here is coming from up top, but its hard to tell.

No problem.
