Question about 1998 Dodge Neon
Sometimes the contacts in the starter solenoid get worn. You can clean the contacts, but eventually they will need to be replaced. After removing the negative battery cable, remove the starter from the car. Disassemble (carefully) the solenoid to gain access to the contacts. Bend the contacts to make a better contact with the plunger, or just replace them and be done with it.

Check voltage at the battery, then if 12 to 13volts you know its a bad connection.do not jump off a good battery it will explode anyway its probably a connection around the starter or bad cable all together allthough I have had car batteries that have poles on top and on the side of the battery and test bad on the side and good on top
