Just getting a click when I turn the key, battery seems fine, lights aren't dimming like I'm pulling many amps.
Anything I can hit ? |

If it clicks I'd say starter motor too, it should jump start. Ray

Broken earth lead gearbox to chassis. I had similar symptoms and changed my starter when it still wouldn't start we investigated further and eventually found that earh lead terminal end had broken at the gearbox .

The solenoid contacts! Bottom one is worn after 100,000km top is brand new.

Solenoid contact kits on eBay are only about £15/£20 and are really easy to fit Ray My build thread http://www.defender2.net/forum/topic17615.html |

This is a very timely topic. Over the last few days mine has developed a habit of clicking when I turn the key, then only turning over a few seconds later. Likely to be the same problem?
