I know your problem well. I have experienced it many times over the
years with cars, trucks. jeeps and boats. In every case, replacing the
starting motor fixed the problem. I am assuming here that the battery
and cable connectors are good. A dead battery will give the same
clicking sound. A poor or corroded battery cable connection can produce
the same clicking noise.If you are trying to save money, remove and clean the battery connector
on the starting motor first. Starting motors are usually located in the
path of lots of road salt and other contaminants. You will probably end
up replacing the starting motor but this is worth a try if cost is
important. Make sure the starting motor rebuilder is reputable. Over the years, I have had dozens of starting motors rebuilt. Never once
have I needed to have a relay or slave solenoid replaced. I always run a
healthy battery and that has helped too.
pounding the top with the hammer
help give it the extra jolt to get going, when the power from the
battery should be plenty. ( I don't mean the hammer is actually pumping
electricity, it moves and frees the dying fly wheel a little.). Try
cleaning the battery terminals once more and make sure the connections
are right and clean them as well, if that is the case, very very good
chance it is your starter.
the end result was a bad new starter tryed new starter now starting thank you for your help
