Corolla suddenly not starting, need diagnostic advice
Battery is less than a year old. Put battery on charger, chargers says
battery is 100%, multi-meter shows 12+ volts too. Interior lights come on
when door is open, horn works, radio will come on in accessory mode.
When I turn the ignition on (not all of the way to start, just to ignition
position) dash lights come on for a second then go dark. Whole electrical
system seems to die. If I wait a couple of minutes, interior lights, horn, etc
start working again. If I try to crank engine, same symptom, I do not hear
starter click at all. Are there any basic things I can check before going to a
mechanic?
