If you turn the key and hear repeated, steady clicks from the starter than the battery is probably low on charge.

Re: 99 voyager won't crank

The EATX relay powers the transmission control module. Doubt that's associated to no starting. It sounds more like Airjer's thoughts may be the problem. Clicking relays is a sign of weak power. You say the battery is good. What makes you say that? I would get a set of jumper cables and jump start the battery. If it starts, have your battery charged or replaced.

Re: 99 voyager won't crank

thanks for the info. but no help. Battery is fully charged , specific gravity is good , 13 volts and tests good with a load monitor. The clicking is coming from the power distribution center, not the starter solenoid. no power to the solenoid, when you turn key to start.
starter relay in pdc tests good, fuse under dash is good. Is there another fuse ,relay or solenoid In the starting system?
