Re: plymouth voyager battery dying at any given time when parked.

battery post & terminalare very very clean. I cleaned then using the
plumbing pipe wire brush which works really well on the post and
terminal. So what do you suggest: A new starter? OR how can I test the
starter to see if it has the issue?

First step... Clean the battery posts and terminals...
Second... Depending on how long this has been going on, it MAY be the
contact terminals inside the starter; these are known to fail due to
excessive wear...

I have a 96 voyager and times it would start fine and with no problem
at all, then other times it would not start all. This is what happens:
come home park the van, wake next morning turn the key and nothing,
just the clicking sound. get a boost and it starts right up and runs
fine.............. shut it off later and it starts right back just fine
and continue like that for days. Then out of the blue I would park it
[say at the mall] come back and nothing; click click click.........
dead battery! What could be draining the power from my battery like
that?
I check to be sure nothing was left on and everything was off. Please
someone help me. It dont cut-off, just wont start after parking.
