The 92 Jetta has trouble starting. I have replaced the alternator because it was not testing well and may not have been fully charging the battery. This had no effect. With a fully charged battery, it starts fine. If I start it about 5 times in succession it will quit starting and all I get it a rapid clicking sound (solenoid?) although the battery still shows 11 volts or so. (when it does start, it starts right away, not a lot of cranking)
Replaced the starter and the same symptoms show.
Thought the starter might be starved of current so I cleaned up the ground contact on the block. Same symptoms!
What am I forgetting? Please let me know what else I should check.
Thanks for any help, David Abineri
