I think I have a starter motor issues.
The battery is fine (fully charged) but when I turn the ignition key, nothing happens - not even any clicking. Connected a 900Amp battery borrowed from Halfords and same happens. However, the engine will start when jump started from another car whilst revving at 2000-2500. This is really odd.
This could suggest that the solenoid might be faulty ? Loose connection ? Earthing issues? I did have a clutch and crankshaft sensor replaced a couple of weeks ago and was wondering if these repairs could have disturbed something connected to the starter motor.
Any ideas what the issue could be and any guidance on DIY starter motor replacement would be appreciated.
thanks
