Hey..
TLDR: Only made a click sound when trying to turn on.. replaced the starter. Worked 3 times. Back to not working just click* sound once.
2013 Corolla LE 76K on engine.
Car was running fine with no noticeable issue.
Went to turn it on- Click just one click- no engine turning.
lights/radio/dash all work.
Didn’t think it was but pull the battery
(9 month old battery) , cleaned up whatever corrosion was on cables, take the battery to be checked- “it’s in perfect condition”purchased a refurbished starter from AZone’
came home replaced it.
Car turned right on- alright great, drove it for 2 minutes and parked it.
left it parked for a day.
Leave the house today, turns on just fine, I drive 15 minutes. Park for an hour, Turns right on again for the third time.drive 15 minutes back home.
Parked- Come back out 30 minutes later and the same
CLICKFML!
I tried putting the car into Neutral- and turning it on, Click
Tried putting it in Drive- Nothing.
Try again in Park Click
(Does that rule out the Neutral Safety Switch, since the starter clicked in park and neutral but not in drive?)Tried to hit the starter with a hammer as best I could with the 2 inches to play in there, while having someone try and turn it on. Nothing but click
I need help!
Why would taking the starter out and putting a new one in work a few times and then fail again?
