hey guys starter or solenoid problem.

but when i hard start the car from ground to solenoid plug it goes no problem, any ideas?

The single click could also be a dead spot in your starter. The old trick is to give the starter some taps with a hammer when it's going that. The vibrations are sometimes just enough to make the starter turn slightly and then the car will start. If so, plan on rebuilding or replacing the starter. In my experience, the hammer trick only works for a week or 2. :thumb:
