Message	cliff notes: - z won't turn over. - when ignition 'ON', clicking noise by driver kick panel. - remove interior panel to find green relay clicking rapidly. - electric lights are intermittently normal then dim, after retry to start. i tried swapping the green relay with another one that's under the hood labeled (EGI) to check if it was the relay and still have the same problem. so is my problem the starter, alternator, or something else? it definitely seems to be electrical of nature. when i try to turn over, it doesn't crank. interior lights just dim and the green relay by my left foot clicks rapidly. just when all was looking rosy, ugh. please help!

(n/m) - stockplayerz(nyc) 00:57:38 06/29/08 It will drop some with the lights on but it's still possible - jzack 09:24:08 06/29/08 Voltage doesn't tell the whole story.
