    Hi guys, this is my first post on this forum.

    I have been having some starting issues on my 2013 T5. I had intermittent starting for about a month. Usually in the morning it would give me trouble, but once I got it to fire, either by ignition or roll start. It would then start fine for the rest of the day and it could be a weak before I had an issue. Sometimes, tapping on the starter body with a hammer would get it to start. But now there is absolutely nothing.

    I have checked the ignition switch and also confirmed with a known operating switch, everything is fine. I am getting 12 volts to the starter, I can jump the start from the solenoid to direct 12 v power and get the starter to turn over no issue. Checking power to the excite wire (ignition wire to the solenoid), when i have someone turn the key I am not getting 12 volts. So it leads me to believe that either the wire is broken somewhere, or perhaps there is a starter relay. If there is a starter relay can someone please tell me which relay I need to look for, so I can check it.

    If someone can lead me to a potential starter relay or something else, please let me know. I have searched the internet and can not seem to find anything regarding a starter relay.

    Thanks
    Paul

    Thank you

    If I figure out the issue I will post back in this thread for anyone else having the same issue in the future.
