Q: Car clicks once but won’t start!
1990 Ford F-150 auto 6 cylinder. Car clicks once but won’t start. I’ve replaced both battery cables, the starter, the battery, plugs, alternator, stater solenoid (on the side by the battery), ignition switch both fuel tanks and fuel pumps. Prior to the problem cables got hot and burned the negative cable. That’s when I did starter solenoid and cables. Thinking harness but I’m ready to throw in the towel.
My car has 15000 miles.
My car has an automatic transmission.
Considering everything that’s been replaced, the most likely cause of this issue is faulty wiring or a loose connection somewhere on a part that has been replaced. My best recommendation would be to go over everything that has been replaced and make sure that all electrical connections are tight and secure. If this does not solve the issue, then wiring is most likely the problem. If wiring is the issue, I would recommend having your vehicle inspected by a qualified professional to diagnose the exact cause of this issue.
