Having problem starting my car and not sure what the problem is.
Car: 1985 Toyota Tercel.
When I turn the key I hear a loud tack sound like the solenoid has moved to the end position. However the motor does not turn. At first the problem started intermittently. I would try turning the key and after several tries the motor would turn and the car would start immediately. It has now gotten to the point were I need to turn the key to the on position rapaidly many times before the motor will turn and start. Once the motor starts to turn the car starts immediately. I seems that as the starter or solenoid gets warmed up the cars starts, since the rapid turning off and on eventually starts the car. The dome lights do dim when I try to start the car. Is the problem the starter, bad connection or battery?
