Have never had a starting problem (other then a NSW issue 3 years ago...) I have a "new" less then 2 year old optima red top, new starter (less then 6 months old).
I went out to my Jeep this morning to try and start it to head off to work and all I got was a Click. First thought was lets jump it (even though all the electrical was working inside), pulled my car next to is and let it sit for 3-4 min, got in and turned the key, same thing....
Then I thought well it could be the starter... even though I just replaced it. So I have pulled the starter and tested it (both the starter and the solenoid. and the Bendix engages and the motor spins. Should I take it to a shop and have them do a current draw test on the starter?
Is there some relay that could be bad? It started like butter Saturday, no problems, nothing. Does any one have any thoughts on what could be wrong?
Thanks for any help you can offer!!!
