Need help...AOD to T5 swap, car wont start.

[Turkey]

Hi everyone,

I need help. I did a AOD to T5 swap on my 88 coupe and now it wont start.

I swaped out the transmission harness from a 5 speed car and plugged it up into mine. I hooked up everything the way it should.

The problem I have is that when I turn the key, the starter solenoid makes a noise but the car wont turn over(see video). I did install a new solenoid and had the battery tested to see if it was still good.

what else could I check?

When doing a T5 swap, what other wires need to be hooked up/bypassed to make it work?

starter solenoid shouldn't make a peep if the NSS isn't closed

Can you tell me what to do?

That is not a problem with the neutral safety switch . You starter is not turning because there is not enough voltage or it could be stuck . It could also be a dirty or bad cable but was this the one that was on it before ? Is it the same starter or did you change it to a high torque (later model) starter ?
