    Went to start turned key on, pushed starter button only a click. Checked voltage on starter button, solenoid, starter motor all show 12.o plus. Cleaned all battery connections, jumped across starter poles and engine starts. Local mechanic said change square solenoid, same results. I am not conversant in electrical and local mechanic here in Mexico stumped. Thinking maybe new magnetic switch start solenoid?
