my car seems to not be getting any power to the starter. when i try starting it all other electrical equipment works. i didnt see any ECU codes flashing, and the blinker lights on the gauge cluster go on as well. this all started when i replaced the battery.

help please!!

checked and they all seem to be in order. we can get it to start by hooking a power source directly to the starter, but no luck beyond that.

Agreed. If the starter isn't bad I would look at the fuses.

starter is good. fuses good. grounds all seem to be good. not sure what to check for with the relay.
i get a CEL. sometimes it just blinks once and goes off(happens the most), sometimes constant red light, and sometimes it will blink repeatedly 5-7 times and then go constant. checked with volt meter and im getting good reading the starter.

dunno what to do :(
