New starter wont disengage when starting
Hi all, long time lurker....
Well now I have an issue I need help with, my 2010 XC60 3.2 was having issues starting, (not to mention the 6 inches of water in the car floor whenever it rains, that I assume is leaking in from the bad winsheid seal) at fisrt I thought it was just the batt again as the day I drove it off the used car lot, an error on the dash popped up saying "charging failure serivce urgent" that would go away after a little while and it didn't ever seem to be an issue, fast forward a few yrs and some times it would start up fine and other s not so, it was little I had to hit the start button just right after pressing on it repeatedly. Anyhoo it got to the point no tricks would get it to start again, so I replaced the starter thinking that the most likely part fail.
So now when I start the car, it starts but the starter does not disengage when engine is running.
I've checked the wiring is correct, made sure to have a fully charged batt in the car...
I'm at an impass, not sure what to look at next or even how to go about diag'ing the issue. I sure as hell dont want to take to a dealership and have them try to run down some flaky electric issue. I hope someone here can, please point me in the general direction of getting this running again.
Thank you
