Starter relay?

 

I changed it 2 years ago but I'll try that. Cheap fix.

 

Battery battery battery. Alternator alternator alternator. Clean terminals.

Buy a 15 buck digital multimeter and you can diagnose the issue.

If you touched the top and bottom bolts on the relay together and it didn't turn over any then it's not an ignition switch.

 

Having the same problem with my 2001. Turn the key - sometimes starts, sometimes click.click. etc. Changed out the starter, solenoid, battery cables. Its irritating, because its intermittent...and yes- it's cold in Northern MN.

 

You guys should do the big 4 and upgrade batteries or add 1. It's -6 here and my cranks over like its 50 outside.

 

Looks like I'll change the battery cables and solenoid. It's not that it won't turn over. It will sometimes while other times it does nothing. Battery is a brand new Duracell Procell. 825 CCA. Starter is only 2 years old but I'll check off the cheaper things first.

 

825 cca or ca ? Check the terminals on your starter, starter solenoid, and staetee relay. I can get pics if anyone needs them for reference.

 

825 CCA. 1000 and some change for CA. That would be awesome. I do have DMM too.
