My van T4 2003. Not starting!

1. I thought its starter motor I have opened and checked it’s working!
2. Not cables too!
3. Not battery it’s perfect!

Ones I turn my key I can hear CLICK and nothing starts. All lights work perfect after turning the key and then again CLICK and not starting!

People please help! Any one can hear me? Pleaseeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee

if it is the solenoid of the starter going click AND the lights remain
bright, then most likely fault is starter brushes or solenoid burnt
contacts.

Mrcheerful Thanks!

I have checked my Starter motor connecting with my Battery and works perfect.
The brushes fine too.

try putting power directly to the solenoid energising wire (the little one)
if the starter then works fine on the vehicle then you likely have a problem
with the ign switch or wiring between.

just fit a remote switch, it only has to supply power to the solenoid when
you press it.

Hey Hi!

I gotta same problems as before My van starts but this 4-5 Attempts! I have
changed IGNITION SWITCH.... two days ago was just fine but now I am same
position. I think I will change my starter Motor For new. ( Ones I turn the
key I can hear little click from fuse box and then chock from my Engine
witch is STARTER MOTOR....But I have opened my starter motor and cleaned up
brushes was just fine!)

Now just thinking maybe some thing wrong with Relay?

Help!!!!!!!!! Help!!!!!!!!
