Yesterday when I was driving my LTWT, it died about 1.5 blocks from the house. I attempted to restart and nothing, no turning over, no lights, no clicking, absolutely nothing.
I figured I had something grounding out, after removing the lead from the solenoid to the starter, everything worked. So it boils down to the field coil being grounded out.
Can I replace the field coil or is it more cost effective to replace the whole starter. The cheapest starter I could find is $225 and I'm sure shipping will be $100+ since I need it before this friday so I can ship it (LTWT) back to the mainland.
Are there any starters from other vehicles that will work, that I might be able to get at NAPA or other parts store?
