2002 Pt cruiser starting issues

[ort102]

Hi everyone i am new here and just purchased a 2002 pt cruiser touring edition. I was told when i bought it that it needed a starter which it did, so i replaced the starter and it started right up. However, ater a few days it si back to doing the same thing and that is just clicking when turn it over. I know the clicking is coming from the starter, so i guess my question is what could be causing this?? If i tap on the new starter and cause a spark it will start sometimes as long as i have another person inthe car to turn it over that is. and by the way it is an auto not a manual tranny... Any ideas on what could be the problem?? Any suggestions would be helpful....is there a known wiring issue i should know about and is there an easy fix for this???? Thanks in advance

Sounds like a dead spot on the started solenoid.

Thats what we thought at first, however we are on are 2 new starter in 2 weeks. And hat baffels us is it is doing the same thing everytime just the clicking that is. However, one you get it started it will last for a day or 2 then not want to start again. And the remote start doesn't even turn it over..
