Just in the past week, when I go to start my van it will click-click-click, then start. The first time it did this, I had to try starting it again before it would catch, and my light were diming at the same time. Up until yesterday this was the process, turn on the ignititon, click-click-click (holding the gas pedal down) and then the van would start. Yesterday morning it just started. Is this the started, the started solenoid?

Thanks!

Yes I believe it is. But first before we jump to any conclusions, lets make sure that all of your electrical connections have a good connection and are not corroded because it will cause the same symptoms. And I am talking the connection on the starter also
