I'm about to tear my hear out trying to solve a starting problem with my
UrQ. Sometimes it starts fine, other times it will simply click when I turn
the key. My battery is good, and when this is happening I can add jumper
cables/jumpbox/battery charger to no avail. The battery will not "pass the
juice"(a technical term) to the starter. If I mess around with it long
enough and hold my mouth just right it will turn over. I suspect that when
it does turn over it may be simply because the electronics have cooled down
enough to make the resistances right again.

A virtual cold beer will be awarded to the one who gets this one.
