You can also make sure that your starter is properly grounded, and all of it's wires are connected well while you're at it.

try to get the name and/or number off the starter maybe you bought it from advanced auto parts or auto zone and it has a warranty.

thats how i got a brand new one in mine. but you can take the starter off and take it up to there and they will test it free.

maybe he can try to jump start it directly from the solenoid by crossing over the 2 wires.
