Dude, you are a lifesaver! I've got a G6 in Pheonix (mistake to begin with I know) and I keep getting stranded in places because my car won't start after a 30 min drive (not even halfway across town). This trick works and it has kept me from melting!

No we just used a ground jumper wire at the ground pine if the relay ...that's an easier troubleshoot to see if it is a dead ground in the box or a ground supply to the box ...once you use the ground jumper and ground that starter relay it will start if it is a ground problem

Just did this to my car and it worked. 🎉 Thank you so much 3 years car has been parked. 2010 Pontiac g6. Can I just leave the wire to the battery. Since it’s only grounded can’t overheat or anything right

The ground to the starter relay was not active.. this was causing the starter not to engage using the key .. we supplied a ground to the ground pin on the relay and the car started right up ... Also we left the jump wire on it for a week of normal driving activity to see if the problem came back and it did not ...we ran a new ground wire to the pin from underneath the fuse box later on and no more issues so for ...😊

My intermittent No Crank issue has been going on for years. It can go many months without acting up & then out of nowhere it returns with the No Crank again. I pulled off the START relay cover & close the contacts manually with the key in the run position when it wont crank. I'm going to try this temporary ground jumper fix. Thx for the suggestion.

I'm having this problem at least every other week. I've only had my G6 since before Thanksgiving. I put a motor in it, and it was good for a minute. I really liked your video. No rambling, no um um ums, and it's perfect for a girl like me, who has some knowledge and resourcefulness, but not the good hacks!! Have a blessed 2023 Christmas 🎄. I'll let you know if I figure it out. 😉

Ive come across plenty of these bad gm grounds. Most likely the ground wire on side of transmission to engine bolt studs. Wires frey off of the copper eyelits. Should be able to see them below throttle body. Hope this helps!

If it has the same issue, possibly it may work .. locate your starter relay and find which pin is the ground pin and add a temporary ground to the relay ground pin and try and see ... Don't know for sure...

Check the ground wire that is located on the transmission fasten with a nut. It by the temperature sensor on the main transmission bolt. There like 5 wires. Those wires get corroded. No crank no start sounds like a rely box issue. Swap out my relay fuse box. In my Chevy cobalt.

The one we worked on just quit all together .... but the when hot issue seems to be in the copper strands of wire inside the fuse box ,I have seen some that the wire got hot and cracked resulting in separation when hot due to the wire expanding and separating them when cool it will go back together and crank .. we did check this one for cracks but non where found ....BUT ! If it has lost the ground to that relay were I show to ground it to the battery ,,you have reestablished the ground and it will crank if it's a ground issue ....Hope this helps .
