My 98 RAV4, 4 wheel drive 4 door, has trouble starting. It is not the battery. [Fully charged, 2 years old, with car off the headlights stay on full for a long long time]
First it just clicks when you turn the key. Sometimes it starts to crank very very slow, and sometimes, during this slow crank, it starts. Usually starts up again but is slow cranking.
Is it a bad wire connector powering the starter or the starter itself? I guess it could be either.
How hard is it to change out this starter?
Thanks and have a good new year.
Richard.
