How to replace starter 5.4l - 1999 Ford Expedition

If it clicks, then it is getting power from the switch to the starter solenoiod. So if you know the battery is fully charged, then the problem is either one of the battery cables or connections, or the starter itself is defective.`.

did you replace it with a new starter or a wrecker starter, maybe a bad starter. check the teeth on the flywheel they maybe damaged causing the starter not to engage. you may have to shim the starter. were there any shims when you pulled the original starter off.

What engine ?

STARTER PROBLEMS

It can be faulty starter or there is loose connection from battery to starter. The starter assembly gets power from battery. Check voltages at starter wires and see if you are getting 12 volts or not. If not then its no power issue due to low battery volt or no connection between battery to starter.

------------These details will help.Thanks.

a factory weatherstripping on the hood leaks causes the cylinders 2 &3 on the pass side to misfire. pull the coils for the cyl. .take off boot with long spring inside, thats your plug wire. they are rusty, no? clean them up, put some dielectric grease all over the spring and reassemble. theres your prob!!!!

Perhaps you would do it like this simple scheme.

Does the starter make one click when you turn the key to the start position? If so, your starter solenoid contacts are worn/burnt. You can either replace the starter (expensive), or remove the starter & have the contacts replaced (inexpensive); Starter contact replacements are a common repair item.
