It sounds like the starter solinoid may be going out.

That sucks.I think the people that design trucks and regular vehicles are brain dead sometimes.They should be made to work on these vehicles and see what it's like to work on them.:ph::ph:

X2 they build the truck around the motor frame and all, I would love to kick them square in the hang downs :argh: :bat:

starter contacts are a normal failure

LarryB's Dodge starting problems solved here.

Amongst all the jobs that one can do on a vehicle, changing a starter on a Dodge truck is nowhere near enough to complain about.

Changing a starter on a Cadillac Northstar is on the level that you can complain about.
