What do you mean,when you say,wont turn over?do you mean it wont start,or do you mean the engine will not rotate when you try and start it.

Have a look at the black on red wire on the starter solenoid,see if it is in place.Is the battery ok?Try starting in N or P

[billy123]

battery ok .starter leads ok took off cleaned them .and tryed in p/n
and just noticed my power roof switch wont work theres no power going to it so somthnk telling me its a relay but wich one is the main power

[kenney]

The starter inhibitor and reversing light relay and the sliding sunroof switch,have one common thing and that is the ignition switch.Do the reversing lights work?

[billy123]

yes the reverse lights work
its wierd this iv no power to soft top switch .no power to obd and cant here fuel pump.and engine wont spin

You can try and bridge the red wire and the black wire on the ignition switch.

[billy123]
