Another Amazon gremlin 120-130

Had the same thing happen to me 1000 miles from home... When I disassembled the starter, the thick wire connecting the starter to the solenoid crumbled. I figure it had been broken for some time already, and in the end made contact only when cold.

However, if it doesn't even click, and you get 12V from the key when you turn it to the start position, it's probably the solenoid. I got a NOS one from a starter shop that was glad to get rid of it :-)
