Help! My CX-9 won’t start

[CmazdaX9]

I mentioned earlier that there's a problem with the gear mechanism, there's a broken mechanism on the cable connected to the shifter on left side anyone know what that (cable) is for also notice that there's another cable on right side ,I believe it goes to the tranny to change gear can anyone verify this .thanks

still no go , I took out starter and bench tested it seems ok , put it back in car and tried to jump it by hooking directly to battery but wouldn't turn over in car so have to do something different .I couldn't make it turn over like when it was out of car. I took the plenium off again .I'm going to do a engine pressure test of the pistons to see how the engine is. I turned engine by hand to see if its free it seemed ok to me . Oh, the tow truck driver mutilated my gear shift lever ,a part that holds the safety cable is damaged(if anyone has one laying around or where I can obtain one would be lovely ) .So will need a new part to get that working properly.

Hi, Im trying to turn motor by hand ,I need to unhook the alternator belt ,anyone know how to do this ,thanks

unhooked alternator belt and found that alternator was seized , wonderful explains why engine didn't turn over. Prior to unhooking the alternator belt had to remove the belt tensioner because it to was siezed .To remove tensioner was a pain. Wish me luck to get this automobile to run

well got alternator out and had to remove radiator to get the alternator out , I obtained a new gear shifter (used) and after installing shifter engine was attempting to turn but would stop ,so I found out why the alternator was jammed and also the tensioner was sticking . Engine still wont turn by key but turns freely by hand ,something else now .
