Hi I'm having issues with my truck starting it will start 90% of the time but like once a day it just clicks a couple times then starts battery cables are tight I'm thinking it's the silonoide any help would be great
Solenoid against the passenger fender is a possibility, but unlikely. They are cheap, but try bypassing it to see if it starts. Also check your battery wires are not corroded inside the rubber, and make sure you are getting over ten volts at the starter when cranking. My 94 wires looked fine, until I had the same issue you're describing and changed them as a precaution. The positive wire at the starter was filled with green corrosion dust, instead of shiny copper just some ideas, keep us updated.
How is your battery? My old battery I think had an internal defect. Once in a while it would not start. I shook the battery and the truck would fire right up. New battery fixed that problem.
I'm having a similar issue without the clicking. Removed my wiper motor last night. Went to start this morning and had no juice in the on position. The truck turns over until you let off the ignition. Can't figure how this would of happened replacing the wiper motor. Any ideas?
