This is a carbon copy of the issue I had last week. I had my starter re-furbished, ie cleaned new bushes, winding checked etc, it now starts on the button. If you can'y get this done it's probably a new starter....

I have 13 volts on the dash meter and when I turn the key I hear the fuel pump and the relay behind the passenger seat and I hear a loud click from the engine bay (the solenoid?) but the engine does not turn.
