Check relays and all that?

No it was too hot and i had another car parked right up to the nose of my car so waited til it was here! Pretty sure relay is ok cuz thats the one thing u hear click when u turn the key over! I am gonna check the couple fuses that go with the starter and there is a test u can do with a multimeter on the battery and u have someone turn the key over and watch for a big voltage drop! If so means its the relay or the starter itself! I will watch a video on how to test just the relays to be sure! I had to wait to do that til i was home and had another person handy to turn the key while i operate the meter!

my first guess is def the flux capacitor, but, it could also be the starter solenoid....jus a guess ppp

This car doesn’t have a separate solenoid on the starter! At least i sure didn’t see one in the picture and wasn’t an option on the auto zone app!

Check your ground straps too.

All of the solenoids that came up were generic “universal” ones but none that looked like anything on this starter!

You can't just keep a hammer in the car?

They are good! When i had them sell me the wrong undersized alternator several months back i started getting check charge system warnings so i replaced the ground wire itself that goes from the terminal to the frame of car and i replaced the negative terminal since it has a sensor that controls alternator output and basically everything else i could find charge system related before i finally went to swap alternator with warranty and they pulled it up and i pointed out the one they sold me was for a manual transmission and put out like 15 amps less! Even after putting the right alternator on i still got that warning on occasion so now wondering if starter was going out and pulling too many amps on start up if thats what would send a code that would make the charge system warming go off!
