The click (hearing it from behind the wheel) is coming from the engine bay; I think it's the solenoid clicking. Time for a starter change. Anyone ever done one on theirs? Is there a how-to somewhere?

Just got home and decided to try it again. Now, I get clicking when I turn the key. The "Security" light on the dash was off until I unlocked it, then it started blinking. That makes me think it's the starter, not the security system. However, I did have some problems in the past with the alarm system - once, my wife locked it with the door button, then when I unlocked it with the key fob, the alarm went off. But I don't think I'd get a clicking like that if it was the security system - I think it wouldn't make any sound at all.

Saturday, she stranded me at Taco Bell, replaced the battery, still nothing - not a sound when I turn the key, then I climb under and mess with the starter, and she starts. Then, Monday, same thing at the grocery store. Messed with the starter, and - nothing. Have been doing some research today, and it seems it could be the security system OR the starter. The key fob I used to have is gone and I have been using the key to open it and the door lock button when exiting. So, what say you? Security system, or the starter?

Ok, so I looked at that. . . . I have no idea what I'm looking at. I'm decent at mechanical stuff, when it comes to electronics. . . Fred Flintstone.

The cruise on my 96 seems to be non-functional. The only time I can get the "Cruise" light to come on in the cluster is if I hold down the "set" button and turn the separate switch to "on" at the same time. Then the cruise light will blink, but the cruise will not catch. Otherwise, nothing. Any idea where I should start?
