my car will not start

But after a charge of the battery or a jump, it cranks normally? Just checking that the ground pathways are ok.

Hook up your meter in series with the disconnected negative battery cable and terminal. See what draw there is and start pulling fuses till it goes away. If it doesnt, disconnect the alternator's charge cable and see if it goes away.

Good luck Kyle.

I dont have a factory spec on current draw but it should be well under 100 mA (0.1 amps). Remember to repeg your positive meter lead when you go to do this.

With the slow cranking, since it only occurs when the motor is physically warm, I like your line of thinking. It's probably either a cable issue, ground issue or starter (heat soak) issue. With the cables and connections, they are less efficient when hot, so borderline stuff rears its head when it gets hot.

I generally beef up the wiring and if that doesnt fix it, have the starter bench tested (while it's hot). I might get the car nice and warm and where it wants to crank slowly (in your driveway). Toss jumper cables from the motor to chassis and one from the starter's battery post to the battery's positive terminal (if you can do this easily). If it cranks right up, you know it's time to fix cables.

Good luck bud.
