starting issue; searched already
I recently went to turn the key, fuel pump primed, turn to start it and nothing happens. A second after holding it, the car would just magically start right up. The second time after that happened it took twice as long holding the key for it to start right up. Third time it never started.
I was thinking key ignition, vats, or something like that (cause I have had it not read the key right once).
I wanted to make sure the starter was good and it looked like the the power wire to the starter was loose and it sparked when I went to tighten it (forgot to unhook the battery lol). After making sure all the connections were good I went to hook the battery back up and the starter try to start the car without the keys in it. I took the whole starter out and autozone tested it and said it was good.
I checked for exposed wires and find nothing. Any ideas? Thanks in advance.

I think I found the solution; we'll see

yep, autozone said the old starter was in good working condition but after replacing it, the car works fine again
