Td4..non starter, part 2

The saga continues http://www.landyzone.co.uk/lz/f9/td4-non-starter-125230-8.html

So it's been fine 99% of the time, clicked on a couple of mornings but the stated and been normal.

Went out at 5 this morning to take the dog out and all i'm getting is constant clicking again. It's been the same all day.

So the question is what do i replace next?

I was thinking of changing the black box on the end of the ignition barrel, does anyone know what the part number is and how much?

Anyone?

Now yer tell us . . . .ok starter motor solenoid or the starter itself , whack it with a rubber hammer [does werk summtimes] but its not a cure. . . . .quite common for the solenoid to go iffy. . . .go into search a lot written on this wun and an easy fix. . . . .but to be honest your faults sound very much a battery wun, charge your battery up and see if it starts first time. . . . . .

Had any joy yet? I think I have the same problem!

Followed Saga No. 1 and thought it sounded like the battery.
If you have fitted a new one and it has re-appeared could be that the alternator is not delivering sufficient charge.

or maybe a bad earth somewhere.
