2014, Turn key, all relays seem to close, no starter

[Expensedition]

2014 Limited, last night when I started the engine it hesitated on start. Today I go to start: Turn the key, dash indicators normal, I can hear the fuel pump and a series of relays click once but no started motor. I checked all of the fuses visually, swapped the 30 amp starter coil fuse with a good one. I swapped out the relays for start/ starter. No joy.

My one owner Expy has 60,000 miles on it and looks like new.

Any help?

Thanks

I was having similar issues with my 011 EL (you can read my posts on it), and I went thru most of the same steps, but I can tell you that unless you have the proper diagnostic equipment to find/pinpoint the actual fault, then take it somewhere that does, most likely a dealer...

Mine ended up being several bad relays in the run/stop sequence that allows or prevents power from being sent to the PCM/starter solenoid/motor....

It's been running fine for about a month now, fingers crossed that it continues to do so

I would closely check the battery, and the terminal connectors and battery terminal posts.

Don’t assume a battery is good because it is not very old.

You hesitation on starting, prior to the no-start, is a tip-off that there is a battery or wiring issue.

Sorry for the late post on this.

That issue was with the starter, where there is the hot wire from the solenoid exposed to the elements. The hot wire was rotten (oxidized) and burned.

I installed a new starter and closed the case.

I have some photos and will have to post them in the next few days.
