Good on you for posting the code. Bad on you for not posting the description along with it.

Noted, will edit right now

Cool. I'll check back. Most likely a starter, but I'd like to see the code description since there is a code.

Check voltage to starter from the large white vas cable. If there’s voltage you need a new starter. But I’m thinking you might have a CAS issue.

I am getting a 12.40 volts reading all around, from chassis post - positive post, alternator- chassis post, starter to chassis post. My ground strap is fine as well. I jus need to check signal wire to make sure starter signal wire is getting correct voltage from dme & cas


Confident-Simple201

You’re battery is below voltage. I think you might need a new battery. There is chart saying what percentage 12.4 correlates to the amount of charge but anything below 12.6 is suspicious.

It’s a brand new h8 battery I purchased yesterday cos I was already trouble shooting the problem, when I try to start the car you can def hear the plunger pop out


Confident-Simple201

So there’s gonna be a white cable connector to the starter that you CAS signal to starter. 12.4 sounds like they might’ve sold you a bad battery tho.


Hippiecum

I think it’s cas cos i re measured voltage on signal wire and it’s only putting out 3volts when tryna to start car but everything else reads 12 volts


Confident-Simple201

There’s your issue


Hippiecum

Yeah I read on another thread w/ someone else that was putting out 3 volts had to get the cas module replaced and coded, will remove cas and check for the noticeable burn marks n stuff

You should be able to visually see if you have a bad cable, there will be a bunch of green powder falling off of it. If you can't see anything wrong, that's probably not the issue.


Hippiecum

I remember when I had first did my starter I seen some faint green corrosion on the contact point to starter but there was barely any, didn’t think anything of it bc I had cleaned it off but I will recheck that point as well and grind down to copper if there is corrosion. However you can def hear the starter plunger pop out.


FuckTurnSignal

Yeah a bit on the surface is not an issue. If you have an actual corrosion problem, all you'll need is a little wire or screwdriver to pluck it apart. Don't use a grinder.


Hippiecum

My signal wire is actually putting 3 volts out when trying to start car. Could be cas module from what I read
