Starter laboring ....now not even clicking ~
I didn't like the way the alternator was charging so I swapped it out.
Charging back up to 13.5 +
Seemed fine than a couple hundred miles I felt the starter was laboring.
The batteries showed a little week on the load test so, throw new ones in I did.
New batteries didn't make much of a difference.
Then I find passenger side block ground had worked its way out of it's crimp ~ repaired.
I got a few good starts, & good when warm. then back to starter laboring.
All connection to battery have good clean seats with Jam nuts.
This morning..... starter wont crank at all....
The solenoid may have clicked a few times at first.....
But now nothing no clicks (even put a battery booster on)....everything lights up on dash like she's ready to go at glow but nothing.
Fuses all appear good.
I'm ready to drop the starter...
Question?
Is there anything thing I can test before dropping starter /solenoid?
Thanks`
