I have had problems with starter solenoids. If the heavy duty contacts inside have corroded the power from the battery will not be bridged across to the starter motor. Best way to test is to put an Ohms meter across the big terminals of the solenoid, then apply 12vdc to the smaller wires. There should be a click or two, & if there's no resistance reading or deflection then the contacts are shot. The unit is relatively easy to open, the contacts are easy to dress down with a small needle file, & is easy to reassemble.

Thanks Yoshi, might give that a bash whilst the missus is watching the soaps!

Hi Steve, saw your other post and am liking the work you have had done on the frame, I might touch base you with you to find out where you had it done and costs.
