Engine won't turn over. (1990 760GLE - V6 - 198k) 700

posted by  someone claiming to be MaxB on  Sun May 1 15:41 CST 2005 [RELATED]

Hi,

All of a sudden, my faithful 760 won't turn start :(

When I turn the switch all the dash lights come on. I move the switch to start and I hear a click but the engine won't turn over. The battery seems to be good (bright lights). A few days ago I took the car to a volvo shop (not dealer) to get a rear seal leak fixed. They also changed the shifter bushings. Could they have left something loose that came undone after a week or so? It behaves as though I'm trying to start the car while not in Park. What all could I check before I call them back? I'm always reluctant to take the car into the shop, because something else always goes wrong! Thanks for all the advice.

Max
