having trouble.... help?
Tuesday, December 30, 2008 12:17 PM
hey guys heres the deal. my cavy has been doing this thing. i try to start it and there is a long pause then a click over and over till about the third time and it would start, like its taking a while for power to get to the silinoid. now i thought the silinoid was going bad so i replaced the starter. well now it only does it once but there is still a long pause. so does anyone have an idea on what it could be? and has it happen to anyone else?

thanks

Is it a auto or a manual? If auto it could be your neutral safety switch on it's way out, or could also be your starter relay going out to. Just had to replace my relay 2 days ago because of this. Also check for loose cables, on the battery, starter and your grounds to chassis and engine. Worst case could be your starter needs replacing.

Electricity travels at 186,000 miles per second. It would take a lot of cable before it made it be a while for power to get to the solenoid.

Sounds to me lie the relay is possibly bad.
