Chosen Solution
I drive a 91 Honda accord dx and I have replaced my starter about 6 months ago and I took it out to have it tested and everything passed. When I turned the key it would click so I would keep turning it because if I did it enough sometimes it would try to turn over and then stop and sometimes it would start but rarely. I have to compression start my car to get it started 98% of the time. Just wondering what it would be. I don’t want to have to check all the switches and wirings just to find out it was the last thing I tried.
Babygirl, Wow, OK. Is it really oily/greasy where the starter bolts up? Starter won’t get a ground if it is oily between starter and the where it bolts to engine. Have the battery cables checked. Sometimes the corrosion is inside the cable housing and can’t be seen. Just make sure the cables where ever they connect at both ends are clean (especially the ground). Now after all that said, with new battery and new starter being checked out fine. There is only the power delivery left! My guess is that one of the cables is not making good contact or corroded inside, There by not letting the full voltage to get to starter. Hope that makes sense. Good luck and please let me know what you find even if it’s not this.
