Hows it going everyone. I bought a 98 acura integra about 6 months ago.. Having a issue with the starter when iu turn it over it just clicks.i would instantly think about bad starter but the issue is sometimes i open the hood and wiggle the cables and i starts up fine. is it just luck its working. ive worked on two other cars in the last 3 months and same issues. and we put new starters in them and problem was still there. the car will work for a week and two days it will have issue then its gone again. any ideas

The power cable to it is probably corroded or not tightened down.

The cable goes directly from the fuse box next to the battery to the Started. Check to make sure its tight and not corroded.

Also, make sure your negative and positive terminals on the battery are clean and tight.
