Re: Really Annoyed
If it's not even clicking, but the brake light is coming on, then you are not getting enough voltage to the solenoid. I would clean the battery terminals, check the battery ground cable, make sure it is grounded to the block and not anywhere else. If that does not do it, replace the battery ground cable. When I got my truck, the po had the ground on the core support. It eventually got to where I would turn the key and it would just "bump" the engine, and if I kept turning the key a couple times, it would turn over and start up. I moved the ground to the engine and have not had trouble since.
