Now may be a good time to check the electrical connections and condition of the wires in the starting circuit. Start with the battery connectors and wires. Remove the terminal connectors and clean them up with a battery terminal cleaning brush. See that the connectors are firmly attached to the wire and that there is no corrosion. Check BOTH ends of the wires for condition, connection, and corroison. Do the same thing at the solenoid of the starter. It may be a solenoid, but make sure the wires are good!
