hello everyone, i have a big problem and now i dont have transportation to get to work or pick up my family, this is our only car in our household so i would appreciate if some of you can give me some advice.
i have a 2001 durango and its not starting, i went to auto zone and they checked my battery & alternator an they said it was fine "i think they also checked my starter, and said that was fine too", i went to them because this problem happened for a little bit but after afew try's turning the key it finally turns over and starts, an even sometimes the problem doesnt happen at all and it starts just fine, but now its not starting at all, i tried many times with no luck.
when i turn the key it just makes a "click" noise, just a single click. like i said its not the battery or alternator so what other problems will cause this to happen? i would like to fix it myself because of course i dont have extra money just like the next guy so can someone give me some advice what i can try to do to see whats the problem.
thanks you guys, you've all helped me out here many times.

what about the rotary cap "i think he said", this was some advice someone at work gave me to check, could it possibly be this?

that is saying if it doens make a click noise then its the solenoid, but thats all the sound it makes, it does make the click noise when i turn the key, so does that mean its not that? or could it still possibly be this

Neutral safety switch? Do you have an aftermarket alarm system? If your problem appears again, when you try to start the D, pay attention to the gear indicator. See if there is a ring around the P. It's happened to me a few times. If the P or N don't have a ring highlighting them, then it's a neutral saftey switch. It's gonna cost ya. I've figured out another way to start the D, PM me if you need more help.
