I think I have one 24v one left. Just shipped one out.

The old hammer trick mostly works with 2 people in play. One needs to hold the start switch engaged, and the other to whack the starter motor on the side at the rear. Reason this sometimes works is to jiggle the brushes. A metal brush holder can rust and keep the brushes from extending out...

The starter is built much more durable than the solenoids within the PCB. You could test for crank signal being sent to the starter, but with the age of these trucks, it really just makes sense to rebuild the PCB with 2 new solenoids if you want it to be reliable.

I'm not sure what else you want. Get 2 new 24V continuous duty solenoids, and go forward. There are posted part numbers in other threads if you need/want.

Should both be 24v. One controls dash power, the other controls signal to starter solenoid.

24v continuous duty solenoids. Cole-Hersee is one mfg of them.

A2 should fire almost instantly if in a good state of tune. Batteries over 5 years old will likely be well below their rated CCA value, and will quickly drop voltage when cranking, even though you can not hear this in starter speed until voltage is way down. The other aspect of the a2 shut...
