Generic car starter question
ANOTHER CAR - general question
Went to start car, got that rapid BRRRTTTT of a chattering starter solenoid, which I have always found to be a low battery. Put on charger - a Schumacher automatic one that charges, then maintains - after it went all green - fully charged, tried again - same thing!!!
I have a portable jumper/airpump gizmo - fully charged - tried that, same result.
I have had a battery with a bad (shorted) cell, that can even drag down an attempt by jumping with another car - but would the charger go green with a bad battery??
Can a bad starter do this? I've had starters go, never chatter, just one thunk and nothing.
Battery a couple years old.
Ideas?
