Starter failed. This was a remanufactured starter I had installed 4 years ago. It had a lifetime warranty so Advance Auto Parts replaced it free of charge.
Wouldn't start. 1st replaced solenoid contacts and plunger - problem solved for 1 week. Replaced starter with reman'd unit (big mistake) and problem not resolved. Stripped and cleaned positive battery cable. Solved until reman'd unit failed
