Janos Says: My car's engine starter sometimes will not turn but clicks. Trying it 2-3 times then it turns the engine. The vehicle is a 1995 Plymouth Voyager minivan.

Curtis Starnes Says: Sounds like to me the starter solenoid is either wore out or burnt up. Pull it off the vehicle and take it to your nearest parts place and they will test it. Easy fix. May cost a little cash though. You also may have a bad battery connection, that will lower the amperage going to the starter until it gets warm.
