Long story short, I went to start the truck this morning. Turned the key to on, fuel pump started, glow plug relay kicked in and cycled, the wait to start light went out, turned to start and nothing. I checked all the connections and they seemed fine so I dismantled the top of the steering column to check the actuator. The actuator and the rack that gets driven by the key cylinder was ok and meshed correctly. While I had it apart I replaced the key cylinder. Then I regreased the components and reassembled the column. Tried to start it, still nothing. I then turned the key on again and this time bridged a wire across from the battery to the small pole on the starter relay and was able to start the engine. So somewhere between the key cylinder and the starter relay there's a problem. I've tried to trace that wire back from the relay with not a lot of luck. Can any one tell me what colour wire the start wire is at the steering column and the correct way to bypass the start in gear switch on the C6.
Thanks in advance. If you have any other ideas on what it might be, I'd sure like to hear from you
Sorry if I don't get back to you guys straight away, my time zone is about 18 hours different to the east coast of the States.
