If a 1999 Suburban will not start now after you've had a few rainy days could this problem possibly be caused by a bad starter?

The first thing to check would be the battery connections. then the battery itself by testing at say auto zone. If those are ok I would move to the starter and reove and test it at the same type store.
Not an answer, but got the same problem. Car cranks, gets started then shuts right down.
Happened once before and was told the computer was bad. $800+
Need a less expensive answer. Thanks for anything.

How can you tell the difference between relay solenoid or starter going bad in a Mercury Sable - Ford Taurus?
A starter will seldom "go bad", but when it does, you will definitely hear a "grinding" or "dragging" noise as it rotates (usually is slow to rotate). That condition is called "starter dragging", caused by worn bushings. When the bushings wear, the starter will drag against the armature inside the starter hull, causing the slow rotation and "dragging" or "grinding" sound. A single click when you try to start the vehicle is usually indicative of a faulty starter relay/solenoid. Or possibly just a loose cable. A rapid clicking sound is usually caused by a low battery. Could also be caused by a loose cale.
