Recently, cranking to start seemed slower, until no start yesterday, click click click... Battery condition indicator (on the battery) is a bright green. Dash battery light never stayed on to indicate a problem. Tach never dropped to zero ala RRC. While no start, headlights still lit pretty bright, but wipers operated very slowly. I suspect the battery, but is there any other known problem with the 2000 DII to cause this? This is a soccer mom truck, so likely not suffer from corroded/mudded up connections to the starter. Thanks. |

I'd for sure try removing / cleaning battery connectors & posts / reconnect them before anything else.

For what its worth - I had a starter in my Nissan that did the same thing. |

Just replaced the battery in my 2000 DII. I had the same situation the indicator was still bright green, but I don't put much faith in those anyway. And I wanted to replace it with a optima so I really didn't stop to question, but I guess that is a little premature, 2 years only 25K on the truck. |
