When ignition key turned to start all i get is a single click... pulled the starter/solenoid and had it bench tested- it passed 4 times- the auto parts place recommended replacing the starter relay $80.00 but i 'm having trouble locating it and wanted to test it first. wireguy212---any help is appreciated
When you twist the key to start, and solenoid is working, the power goes directly to the cable on the other side of the solenoid. If the starter does not turn the engine over, and you KNOW the solenoid is good, then you have a bad cable connection at the solenoid or starter OR the starter itself needs attention. After power goes thru the solenoid, no relay is required. JUST 12 volts.

sounds to me that you have an igniton problem not a starter problem and or if you have or had an alarm system could be cause if u do give me feedback and i will explain but seems that your starter is fine from what u say but if you think in terms of the elemts to start a vehicle batery gives pwoer to ignition which sends to starter which gives spark etc i would check you ignition system something is causeing a short and not alowing starter to function

your alternator tested good right? The first wire should be a Red/Blue going to a 15A fuse labled GAUGE inside your car L/H kick panel. Second wire is yellow/blue going to your dash combination meter (charge warning light). Third wire is white/green and bigger. It goes to your engine fuse box 50A. You should have voltage at this wire when your car is running. 13.9-15.1 volts. If so ohm out your 50A fuse and your 100A fuse. Hope this helps

You don't need to.You need to put new contacts in the starter solenoid switch,just take the three 8mm bolts out of the solenoid cover and pull out the plunger and you will see what i'm talking about,the car has no relaly for the starter.

You should replace the fuel filter and check for vaccum leaks. Also you should check the compression of your vehicle this might solve your problem.
