Help, Corolla Tsport Engine Wont Start

[kintung01]

I have tried to start the car this evening. it first sound very normal, "tak tak tak". when the engine is about to start, all the noise stop.

when i retry to start the engine again, it just tak tak tak.............. and wont start. I have try disconnect the Battery and reconnect it again. Same problem still occurs.

Does anyone have the same problem or may know the problem, Is it because Battery??

Thanks for advice

Sounds like the solenoid is knackered. Test the Voltage across the Contacts with a multimeter, if it's anything above 0.1V drop then it's knackered.

if it is true that the solenoid is knackered, Is it costly and difficult to replace the solenoid?

Thanks
