I replaced the battery at is wouldnt turn over the motor but it would make a clicking sound. Heres the catch, if i take the the positive battery terminal off and hook it to a another car like i'm jump starting it but with the negative still hook to the battery like normal. it would work. so i bought some new terminals and it worked for the about the first 10 starts, but now it won't work, it does this clicking noise. I don't understand why this is happening. Thanks in advance!
 






could be the starter solanoid bad, its located on driver side fender wall in front of brake chamber.
