Hey Guys

This morning I got into my car and when I wanted to start it it didnt want to start at all. The starter didn't even turn at all.

My battery is fine. I tested it.

This has been happening quite a few times now.

Where i'd be driving with it in the morning and it is fine, then i'd quickly go into the shop and when I come out? Wont start again.

I've removed and fastened the battery terminals about 3 times. They seem pretty tight. I also jacked up the car to check the starter and it seems that its no loose terminal giving me the problem.

This tends to happen about once every 2 months. Usually at the worst time, since it would be working perfectly fine and then the next time I try to start it?

Nothing at all.

Anybody come across this problem or a solution to it?

I cant really take it in this week and I have an exam in 2 days which I have to attend, therefore I cannot really send it in right now

If you are getting 12volts at the main terminal on the starter and 12v at the small solenoid wire when cranking then suspect the starter itself,also check earth wires on engine up to battery
