- 2001 mazda protege mp3
So here's the story I got an 01 protege 2.0 130,000 miles. Past few weeks. When I go to start it itl click like I'm not pushing in the clutch but if u pull the lever to pop the hood it would sta right up. Now it didn't do it all the time but the battery was coroded so I replaced it it solved it for about a week and it started doing it again and has slowly gotten worse. And now even if I pop the hood it won't start even if I jiggle the wires I've even had to push start it a few times. I just checked all the connections and everything on the starter is fine. The starter is a 2 year old bosch so I don't think its bad my next guess is starter solenoid but I'm not 100% positive if its seperate from the starter or built into the starter. Anyone got any ideas? If its built into the starter does anybody know if bosch has a lifetime warrenty on their starters? Cause I don't wana spend 300 bucks on a starter/ spend 3 hrs or so pullin the starter off to have it tested and it still be good
