My Max is in critical condition! She won’t start! Only 1 click from the starter when I turn the key.

Here is a quick rundown of her last few moments...
Driving around listing to my music at high volume and she dies down when the bass drops... ok battery or alternator. Check and see that positive cable is extremely loose, proceed to tighten and hammer the metal cover to get the correct connection. She starts and no more dimming from bass drops. Turned her off and went inside. (keep in mind I never drove off)

Come back 15 minutes later to leave but now she only gives me one click! ONE CLICK!

All the lights come on fully illuminated, no dimming, and my capacitor reads 12.9(more than enough to start). I hear the fuel pump come on too.

I'm thinking starter but I'm not sure. Going to get it tested after this post...

Any suggestions?

 

Could be a bad ground, check those as well.

Check the voltage at the starter when you try to crank it.

 

id say its probably the starter. mine did this too. take it to get tested. then you may have the luck like i did to find one at a junkyard. (i went to pick n pull)

 

yeah i'd say it's the starter.. my I35 has been doing this at least once a day.. i just turn the key a few times repeatedly and it starts right up lol.. i've been lazy to change it.. so it works for now!
