Just happened out of the blue! Shut the truck off, 5 minutes later I tried to start it again and it clicked once! I cleaned the battery terminals and cables and not even a click this time! With the lights on I turn the key and the lights dim but no click! I checked the battery with a meter and it says its charged! I even tried jumping it so I'm assuming the start solenoid is bad or the key switch maybe? Any idea's?
