Best Answer

There are a few possibilities, Make sure the battery is fully charged then check to see that the wire going from the solenoid to the starter is clean and tight. Sometimes the connection gets corroded. If these check out I suggest pulling the starter and taking it to the auto parts store and have them test it. Always disconnect the battery first before you remove the starter.
