'04 Freestar no start


Recommended Posts

'04 3.9 Freestar, no start condition. Battery seems strong, 1 click when turning the key, sometimes accompanied by a soft whirring noise. Fully charged booster pak makes no difference. Cables are good & relatively new. Tapped the relays in the fusebox near the battery, no help. It is stuck in a parking spot, cold out & the only time I have to look at it is late at night so I am dreading the expected response LOL.... My suspecion is that there is a solenoid on thee started & that that or the started has failed....

Any suggestions?

Thanks

I know this is an old thread but it sounds like the Bendix drive on the starter has failed.
