I posted about this awhile back but the problem has slowly started coming back again and I cannot find the issue.
Issue:
Turn the key on, fuel pump primes turn to start and loud click and very small engine turn. Some times it will start the next attempt, sometimes it takes about 20 attempts. Seems to worsen in hot weather.
Things I have done:
Replaced battery, no change. Borrowed a 1000 cca battery with no change
Replaced alternator, no change
Replaced starter actually twice because i was convinced the one i installed must be bad, no change.
Replaced the battery terminals, no change
Replaced key fob battery, no change
Replaced starter fuse relay, no change
Replaced battery ground to frame, no change
Ran a second wire direct to starter from battery, no change
Putting it in neutral or shifting back to park makes no difference.
This really has me stumped. What gets me is that the motor does turn slightly when it clicks, so the signal is getting to the starter solenoid and starter motor.
As an added weirdness, just recently now the radio audio goes out at about half volume, i have to turn it off and back on to get sound back, not sure its related.
any other ideas to try?
