Still Starting Problems, Any Help Please

[LS400ANTH]

Hi all,

I replaced the switch on the side of the gearbox not too long ago to cure a starting

Problem. I've checked it several times to ensure it is set up correctly, which it is.

But the car still sometimes refuses to start and often will when I keep it around neutral.

Some say the starter might be the problem but why would it still start around the neutral position

If its the starter? Is there something else I should be looking at, like another electrical switch or

Something? Its just replacing the starter is not a two minute job but I will do it if I think this really is

The problem. Please let me know as its really starting to baffle me

Cheers

Ant

When my starter was on its way out it began with the same symptoms you have with the park/neutral waggle eventually getting the starter to activate.

Sorry it isn't the reply you wanted to hear but if the starter is the original the chances are the contacts are eroded to their limit.

No thanks, it's helpful if you had the same problem. Think I might just change it and see
