Car Won't Start, Rb20E

[Ronald McDonald]

Right I know this belongs in the 4 door section but it will get much more notice here. My 1990 C33 laurel has just had an engine swap, it's an rb20e automatic. Everything is wired up correctly and the car still won't start, no noises at all. After bridging the inhibitor switch the starter tries to engage or makes a clink noise but nothing after that. When the car is in the ON position there is a buzzing coming from what seems to be the auto box. As you open the throttle it gets weaker and goes away. I have jacked the rear up and checked to see if the car thinks it's in gear but the driveshaft doesn't move. Any ideas on what it might be?

Tried with a jumper pack?

Sounds like it is not wired up correctly. There should be no buzzing sound in the auto.

So you put in an rb20e ?

Starter/alternator are wired up correctly. Yes 20e is temporary until I buy my mates 20det in a few months. Search online a bit the buzzing has happened to others but mostly other cars such as subbies
