Won’t Start After Few Mins Starts


Recommended Posts

Come out after work or after sitting 4+ hours the truck will do the normal ding and cluster works. But at turn over will click once. After a few times of doing this the truck will start no problem. Checked the battery that is fine. Alternator has been replaced. What else should I be looking for? Starter? Spark plugs? Coils? 2017 Silverado LT with 112000 miles.

To verify, when it doesn't start, or just clicks, just tap on the starter with (hammer, piece of iron) something heavy, even while somebody holding key in start, if it starts, then it is the starter (dead spot in the armature)

Comman problem, has happened to me and others I personally know. Starter. Change it before it leaves you stranded, like it did to me. Luckily in my own driveway, haha, but it was on July 4th weekend a few years ago.

Most vehicles of all brands when you hit the start button you’re going through the computer for everything. Your pretty much requesting to start. If everything is hunky dory you’re request will be granted. Gone are the days of grinding the starter. My vote is it’s the starter.
