We need better heaters at work or maybe a door that isn't duct taped back together and actually seals.

Just glad my weekend starts in 12min. 'Course that means I have to face the reality of the current hospital situation with my dad..

1996 Chevy S10 4.3L

Coworker drove it up last night. Tried to leave this morning. Starter relay clicks, but no other noises. No starter activity. Tried tapping it.

Battery was 9V before I attached jumper cables, bringing the voltmeter to 14V. No change except that the lights got brighter.

Thoughts? Dead spot on the starter? Frozen fluids? Something else?

How long did you let it charge for with jumper cables

sounds exactly like my issue - starter would lock up under 10*temperature and i had to hammer on it to get it to spin.

Could also (more likely) be a bad battery though - loss of CCAs is common in sub-zero temps with older batteries. Voltage would show ok, but battery doesn't have enough amps to crank the engine. Usually jumper cables won't help. Although you could try leaving the headlights on for a few minutes to get the juices flowing in the battery, then jump it.

They hit the starter with a bigger hammer, and now he's home.

I need to get one of those plug in defrosters. Mine barely works. Only enough to make a little half circle in the middle. This summer I need to get a new HVAC box and fix my heat/AC.

Nothing like using an ice scraper on the inside !

why doesn't your heat work? That should be easy to fix?

Does your fan kick air out of the defroster or no? Better symptom description please....
