I had a problem with the van not starting when you turn the key nothing happened (click). Checked battery it was good. Replaced the starter and was working fine(about 1 month)then all the sudden I am having the same problem. I kept playing, turning the key and eventually it did start but then after starting the van about 15 times the problem happenend again.

The purple wire at the starter solenoid S terminal should be hot with key in the crank position, is it? If not, backtrack the circuit, my info shows that voltage comes from ignition switch.

The ignition switch you are refering to is that the one that is strapped to the column down by the brake or the ignition key switch?
