The starter on a 2002 dodge intrepid wont engage. The starter solenoid clicks as if the battery was low, have tested the battery, starter and switched starter relays nothing makes a difference.

HOW DID YOU HAVE THE STARTER AND SOLENOID TESTED?

EXACTLY HOW?

CAN YOU GET YOUR PAL TO LISTEN UNDER THE HOOD FOR A MORE PRECISE LOCATION OF THE CLICKING WHEN IT'S JUST CLICKIN'?

WITH THE KEY OFF

CAN YOU ROTATE THE ENGINE ONE (OR MORE) FULL REVOLUTIONS WITH A WRENCH OR RATCHET---IN IT'S NORMAL DIRECTION OF ROTATION?
