Hello ,Im a 2001 Rodeo owner for a few years now and was wondering if i could get some help.My Rodeo is having problems starting.I recently changed out the battery and negative cable and it seemed to be fine ,except for the times when i had to hit the key 5 times before it engaged.After that it would start fine the rest of the day.Then Last week it wouldnt engage the starter.I heard a clicking like it was trying to but still not crank.I've tried changing the ignition switch witch i thought it might be but no luck still the same.Also checked the fuses ,all good still plus power is getting to the starter.Was wondering if i should replace starter or could it be something else.

Ok well im thinking of pulling the starter this coming weekend .Im hoping it comes up bad ,or I fine a cable messed up.But we will see.

 

Sounds like a bad stater to me.

 

thanks for the response.Im still in the process of getting the starter out.Got any suggestions for a large person to get it out.LOL.
