Electrical problem
1998 Buick Regal 6 cyl Front Wheel Drive Automatic

My 1998 Regal LS won't start lots of times, it makes one click behind the glove box, all electrical and lights (head and dash) come on and work fine.

When it was running I took to have starter checked and was told it was fine. Told to replace battery and did.

Replaced all fuses and blocks in dash box and under hood.

If I just keep trying to start for awhile (5 to 80 mins. so far) it will eventually start.

It sounds like the solenoid is bad on the starter. When they checked the starter, did they bench test it?
