Recently, my Bravada wouldn't start when I turned the key. Assumming the starter was bad, I had it rebuilt (a new solenoid), and I thought the problem was fixed. Well, a few weeks later, the same thing happened. Wehn I turned the key, i heard the starter click once, no engine crank at all. I waited a few minutes, tried again and it started. this is happening more ANd more frequently. any ideas?
