Land Rover D90

[Scott Garvey]

My Defender won't start. I get power, the battery is good. But when I turn the ignition, it's not turning over. I just get a click,click, click. I've checked the plugs and none are loose. I've traced the wires from the starter and they appear to be attached. Any ideas?

Try jump starting it... but if you are getting the click, click, click... I would say battery.

First thing I did was jump it. Battery is good. I'm going to change out the starter motor and hope that's it. Ordered the part and will respond back after I've given it a whirl. Never changed a starter before... hope it's not too comlex.

Changing starter isn't hard... but if you just got a click... and the battery is good... then I would say starter as well... that sucks... sorry to hear it.

Did you carefully check all of your grounds between the battery and starter?

How about a solenoid / relay? really cheap too.
