88whitemanche Posted May 21, 2013 Share Posted May 21, 2013 Most likely it's that solenoid. I have had that same problem to what I do is tap that solenoid and it'll start right up...or the contacts to the solenoid is dirty that's not getting the connection to the other parts...that solenoid also sends power to other parts Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ParadiseMJ Posted May 21, 2013 Share Posted May 21, 2013 I'd give the battery connections/grounds a good going over. Remove the cables, shine up the posts, inspect the cables themselves, check the main ground at the oil dipstick...shiny, clean and tight. Smear a little vaseline on there when you're putting it back together. Give the starter a couple of good taps. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
