I looked under the hood for some loose wires and there is this one that seemed to have rusted and broke off. It is a pushon and has some kind of metal connector inside it. It looks like it just broke off because all the metal inside it is very clean and everything around it is greasy and black. maybe i can take a pic of it and show you what it looks like,then maybe you can tell me if that's it? hey,thanks alot for replying,because i was about to light the van on fire :-) let me see if i can get a closeup pic..This piece is round black plastic outside with the metal connectors inside and is on the opposite side of the battery. Now that i think about it,it did sound like the clicking noise,when i try to start it,is coming from the battery side. I'm gonna go look. thanks again
