So it's 9:00 p.m., I go to take a delivery, turn the key in the ignition .. and hear nothing, except for a very faint tapping sound.
Before you tell me the obvious bits, I'll state the bits we tried:
- Radio, Heat, Headlights turn on and are persistent. Horn also works.
- Battery was tested with an ohm meter, came to be just fine.
- Attempted a jump start w/ some cables, no luck.
- AFAWK, the relays were fine.
- Waited a half hour w/out touching anything, still no luck.
- Jiggled the steering wheel and shifted/re-shifted the gears, nothing.
Hypothesis: Starter is gonzo.
The Car: Pontiac Bonneville SE (MY: 1996) 3.2 L V6, Automatic
