Hello all! My 1998 ES is not starting. I'm suspecting it's the starter. For about the past two weeks, I have had some intermittent starting problem. Inserted the key, proceeded to start the engine then "A CLICK". I then remove the key, re-inserted and placed the gear on reverse, then park..the engine starts. It has been an intermittent problem since then. Tonight, however, I was getting ready to park the car inside the garage, the car won't start. I did my ritual from my past episode.....nothing.. Just a click, not clicking. Nevertheless, I ended up pushing the car inside the garage.
The battery seems o.k. All the lights comes on. Could it possibly be the starter? Has anyone ever experienced this on their ES? :cries: Could I go to my local toyota dealer and buy this part? I really hope it's just the starter. I will dismattle it tomorrow and test it. Anyone has any recommendation on what else I can check? I really need some direction. As always, I appreciate any insight and direction on what do next...
