hey y'all I'm working on my moms (soon to be mine) 1996 f150, it has a 302, 5.0, with an auto tranny,
The problem is that the starter won't turn over the motor, its not the solenoid on the fire wall because iv jumped that already

i took the starter to auto zone and they tested it and said it was good, I'm thinking that it is the solenoid on the starter, i know its getting power because I'm hearing a click then i jump the solenoid on the firewall,

is there any way i can just buy the solenoid that goes on the starter or do i have to buy a whole new starter? any help is greatly appreciated,

Thanks in advance

Yes. AZ sells just the solenoid for the starter. I bought one there for my F150 last year.

thanks, how does the solenoid attach to the starter?

BTW this is the best forum out there in my opinion, everyone here is very kind and knows their stuff

It's easy to change. Most of the time just a couple bolts and wires. And is a lot cheaper than a starter!


Btw-- there is a full size truck section on TRS. Not that I care lol. But there is a specific place you can post full size truck questions.
