[QUOTE="BMAC96GT, post: 1351568, member: 12060"] Been chasing this problem for a year and its made me literally hate the car. When I turn the key, all I get is 1 click coming from the starter. It has progressively gotten worse over time to the point now where I can't even get the car started. It used to take me a couple of attempts, then the car would start. Sometimes it would take me 20 attempts for it to fire, sometimes it would fire on the first try. But now, all I get is 1 click each time I turn the key...cant get it to start. Things I have done thus far: -Got the starter checked. It tested good multiple times -Replaced the starter solenoid -Put a new battery in the car in 2014 and also got it tested. It tested good -Replaced the entire NEGATIVE ground wire from the battery to the engine block with new terminals -Replaced the entire POSITIVE wire from the battery to the starter -Wire brushed and cleaned all terminals and connections to the battery, starter, and ground sources I literally don't know what else to do. This problem is driving me insane. Any help or suggestions on what to waste more money on to try to get this thing to start? [/QUOTE]
