Message: [QUOTE="Dave_Nevada, post: 1499732, member: 29749"] First things first. Look at replacing the start relay. If you've fried the contacts inside the relay, what you are describing (clicking) is exactly what will happen. This is easy to see in a GM wherein you can disassemble the starter solenoid and flip the contacts. Anyway, the solenoid coil is working, but the contacts sound burned. Easy and cheap to replace FIRST. You need current to drive the starter and it's simply not getting there. I've shorted the two lugs with a hefty screwdriver to see if the starter would run. If it doesn't, and the batteries are good, it's the starter. It's hard to say without being there, but that's how I'd approach it. Starters and solenoids don't really have much of a load on them until you try to crank that sucker in really cold weather. Then Molly bar the door. [/QUOTE]
