I had the same problem a few years ago. It had been caused by having the
battery cables crammed out of the way by the previous owner during oil
changes. After I had some starting issues I replaced the solenoid and now it
works fine. The new posts on the solenoid do not turn in the housing. I
bought one from NAPA.
