2017 Camaro LT No Crank No Start

TheG33k · 02-21-2020, 07:52 AM

So I'm not sure how to go about figuring out what the hell is going on in my 2017 Camaro but I know I have to figure it out and soon before I lose my ever loving mind...

So for about the last 2 months or so I have been having the same problem and I can't get anything to resolve it.
1) if I turn the car off in parl the vehicle will restart no problem as long as it is restarted in 10 min or less. If not then the car will not restart.
** Once it's been off for more than 10 min I get in push the starter and it doesn't Crank nor turn over not even a single click
*** The radio and the OnStar systems will turn on as well as the over head lights I can also hear the door chime going off but I don't get any gauge cluster lights to come on at all.

The car battery is good and there are no blown fuses....

When I push the start button it doesn't do anything and I can jump it pull any fuses etc etc but to avail.

Then 2 min to 10 hours of monkeying around and then all of a sudden I'll give it a shot and the gauge cluster lights up and the interior lights seem brighter and it'll fire right up...

2) If I leave the car in neutral and turn it off I can leave it like that as long as I'd like to seeing as I keep a battery charger on the battery so it doesn't die.

IDK what the hell is going on with this car but any suggestions would be greatly appreciated.

Sounds like a bad ground. Do your battery terminals have any buildup on them? When was the last time they were cleaned or checked for tightness? Connections to the starter could cause this also. That is my best guess.

my car did this on the day of my dyno, turned out to being a bad ground. My alternator wire burned up and caused that as well as placement of the grounds on my block.

This has happened to me and it’s driving me nuts. Car won’t crank up. Everything lights up but does not start. Did you figure out the issue? Been wondering if it’s my starter, need new spark plugs or even a new ground cable.
