One problem I've seen is the wire going into the solenoid breaks off due
to vibration. In our case it was fairly obvious once we got the
covers off, and a pretty simple fix. Didn't click though.<br><br>

Hello all, <br><br>
So I was going to take the race car for a spin around the neighborhood
yesterday but the car would not start. I knew the battery was low
so I had it on the charger for a couple hours before hand but all I got
was a click of the solenoid. Cleaned the battery terminals checked,
wiggled and tightened all connections of concern and .... click.<br><br>
Today I read it takes 10 hours on a 10 amp charger to get my red top gel
cell battery to full charge, from the manufacturer web site. Hmmmm
never heard of that before.<br><br>
So back to starting again, I tried the jump start mode on the charger and
... click. I tried a jumper direct to the starter and ... nothing
????<br><br>
So my question is has anyone run into problems with these hi-torque gear
starters and if so what was the cure? Please be it not to replace
with another unit. This one is only a couple years old.<br><br>
Happy holidays,<br>
