GUYS YOUR MY LAST RESORT.....
I have a 97 ford expedition...

And yesterday it won't start. I heard a clicking popped the hood, And heard it from the start selenoid...So I said ok its that. Went bought a new one. And I hook it up didnt start. Keep trying then started. Today I tryed to start it and now it wont start again. I asked someone else. And they said it might be the theft system. Cause I dont have a remote just a key..And when I try to start it the door locks lock and unlock. PLEASE HELP ASAP!!!!! ANYONE... NO CHECK ENGINE LIGHTS...I Was thinking since I disconnected teh negative from the battery to replace the start selenoid that, that might have resetted the alarm thats why it started after like 4 tries....But I dunnooo HELP

Take a look at the wires on the starter. These are notorious for the cable connections to corrode away. It may be hard to see under there, but look carefully.

9 outa 10 times it's a dirty battery post. Check them and clean them up. If you still have troubles go down the line. Battery voltage, alternator. But I bet it's a battery post.
