I have an 89 740gl, which I believe is a B230F. It's not starting, and not making much noise when I try and start it. There is a little whirring noise, but I'm not sure if it's related. I know about the starter ignition prevention dealio, but I'm not sure if it's what I think it is, or how to mess with it to get the car to start.

I took a quick video, about a minute long, of me trying to start it. I can make another video any time, of whatever would be helpful in diagnosing this. Just say the word.
