Do you mean the engine won't fire up or that the starter/engine does not turn?

How are you,

Yes, the engine will not fire up, the starter does not crank: complete silence.

Thank you,

Santiago

Re: 1996 Dodge Van Ram 2500 Electrical Problem

The solenoid on the starter could be internally cracked which will cause it to expand and bind when hot. As it cools it becomes free and can move. When the solenoid moves it closes a set of contacts powering up the starter. At the very least you probably need to replace the solenoid. But to avoid problems shortly down the road, I suggest you replace the whole starter/solenoid assembly.

Do you still have the problem with the new starter, or no?
Was there a new solenoid on the starter or are you using the old one?
