Hey y'all,
My wife's Odyssey wouldn't start earlier today. The battery didn't seem too dead, lights on the dash, etc. came on. I tried hooking up jumper cables to my car, it still wouldn't start.
When she would try to start I'd hear a click from under the hood, I think from the starter solenoid. I'm thinking the starter itself is bad. I believe the best test would be to make sure you have battery voltage going into the starter when the key is turned to start, but the starter is kind of hard to get at being under the battery.
What would you think the odds are it's the starter? We tried putting it in neutral in case the switch that detects that it's in park was bad. Is there anything else that would click under the hood when the key was turned to start, besides the starter solenoid?
