when I turn it over to start, it cranks one or two times slowly then buzzes and stops. It’s a brand new battery.
Could it be the aftermarket ignition the previous guy installed?when I turn it over to start, it cranks one or two times slowly then buzzes and stops. It’s a brand new battery.
How do I test it?Need a new starter?
Yes it’s good. Checked it.So then, brand new means charged and good? Don't assume anything.
Well, you might be able to find a parts store that can bench test it for you and see what it is drawing for power.How do I test it?
If it’s drawing too much power, that would allow it to turn over but to slowly? And when I turn it over more than 3 times the battery doesn’t have enough power to turn it over and just buzzes or makes a high pitch noise. I have to then recharge the battery then Try again. And nothing every time. I get 2 or 3 cranks and it’s done. Took the battery to autozone, even they said it was good. When it does start it’s after that battery was fully charged and I get lucky and it fires up the first or second try. I’m losing my mind.Well, you might be able to find a parts store that can bench test it for you and see what it is drawing for power.
It would probably just be easier to buy a new replacement starter and go from there.
It the battery is good and you are sure of it, then the starter is defective and it is drawing to much power to operate and needs to be replaced.
Every time I turn it over the lights slightly dim.. the battery’s load test is good. All connections are good.Load test the battery. Clean and check all connections.
Turn headlights on...nice and bright?

Yes, your starter is shot. Get a new one.If it’s drawing too much power, that would allow it to turn over but to slowly?
