Now solved, see bottom.
I have a manual 1994 HDJ80 with 450.000 km on the odo. 24 V starter. It has during the last year developed an intermittent starting problem. Sometimes, when I twist the key, nothing happens except for a small click in a relay. I wait 10 seconds. Same thing. I wait one minute, sometimes 10, and it starts just as normal.
Before I start digging into this I just wanted to know if anybody can point out the direction.
It really can only be 3 things:
1. Starter Relay
2. 12/24 V relay (or Voltage Converter Relay as Toyota say)
3. Starter solenoid.
The small click suggest that it is not starter relay, but one of the other. What puzzles me is that it just starts as normal after a small wait.
