[s-cars] NOT STARTING HELP NEEDED!!

[James Murray]

Sounds like the starter may have died, happened to me... The connection on the start burnt apart on mine, I was able to remove the starter and repair the connection, otherwise the starter would need to be replaced. Not that hard to remove, just in an akward location to access. 

You could try jumping your starter to see if that's the cause.

Subject: [s-cars] NOT STARTING HELP NEEDED!!

Hello to everyone,

Need help with a resolution or any ideas of where to check.

Car 1993 s4.

The car started fine this morning with no hesitation at all.
Today when i go to leave work it turned over a few times and then...Nothing.
I have plenty of power, the light, radio, etc all come on and do not dim or show signs of hesitation.

The connections at the terminals are very clean and very tight. But!, when I turn the key nothing happens (the radio stays on, nothing dims etc..) and there's no clicking sound coming from the starter like it's a weak battery.

Note: it is very cold and rainy here, could this cause a weak ground on the starter or something similar. What should I start first?

Any help appreciated,
Chris
