Starter Relay Failing?
Our LeSabre has developed a starting challenge. This is an intermittant issue. When the key is turned to the "on" position everything comes up/on as it should, but when the key is turned to the "start" position nothing happens at the starter when the key is turned to "start". Also, power goes off at the appropriate locations [blower, lights, etc] when the key is turned to "start". When it first happened this morning, I don't think the relay was clicking though I can't be positive. About 20 minutes later I tried again and I heard the relay clicking as I turned the key to "start" and on about the four turn of the key to "start" it turned over and started just fine.
Do relays die a gradual death? I swopped the starter relay for the air pump relay to see if it makes a difference (best option to still have a drivable car).
Any thoughts, similar experiences.
