I really need HELP.

The issue: Weird crank

It'll crank for a split second and then all you'll here is the starter spinning. I assume it's still spinning the driveplate.

So the QUESTION: Is There a signal that causes this cranking noise or is the noise just a result of the engine being turned?

I've checked the start signal fuse and it's OK.

The problems started AFTER my transmission swap. AUTO TO AUTO.
I found CRAZY97's thread. I ran a 4ga wire from the 14m bolt directly to where the NEG cable of the battery mounts on the engine. NO noticeable improvement.

car = 98se auto. 168k

When ever it has started, I noticed a rough idle and carbon fouled plugs 4/6 with the other two slightlty carbon fouled.

I need help!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Thanks.
