I am having a issue with the starter of my mustang when i crank it will stick and keep going even if i turn the key to off, then i have to pull the battery cable to get it to stop. I have replaced the ignition switch, starter, starter wire, and celoniod ... Anyone know why this is doing this

you need to grab a test light and see if current is still being applied to the starter side of the selonoid when prob occurs, if it is then quickly see if current is on the ignition /small feed wire, if none, and or no current on both then = bad starter bendix, if current on starter wire and not on ignition feed = bad selonoid and or cheap china one

i got another part to this that is interesting this is the 3rd celoniod i put on ... soo

but also why would it stick open and keep going after the key is off.. and once i get it unstuck which magically somehow happens lol.. it wont do it for 3 or 4 days then it does it agian

you need to grab a test light and narrow down the issue, this is not a hard prob to resolve if you perform the simple tests I stated

Sounds like the solenoid but you said you've replaced it ? Next time it happens tap the solenoid with a screwdriver handle and see if it stops, our car has been doing that off and on lately and it's the solenoid, if I tap it with a screwdriver it comes unstuck and stops cranking

i fixed the issue .. i did what mjr46 said to do and it turned out the 3rd celoniod i put on was bad also what are the odds of that? LOL Thanks all you guys
