Hiya, hope someone can advise. My '87 X19 this morning: battery newly charged. Starter motor suposedly sorted a few months ago, probably haven't started it thirty times since (though it did a glorious job as our wedding car in early May).
So this morning, turned key in ingition. Tick tick tick tick tick... nothing. Tried rocking the car, which always worked a treat before I finally decided to sort the intermittant issue of the starter sticking over the last few years - absolutely nothing turning over still...
Am a real lemon with all this, but something in my head says solenoid failure? Am I right to think this, and is it an easy change if so? If my starter was overhauled, would that not have been sorted at the same time? Thanks for any light someone can shed. Glenn in Sheffield
