Perhaps the solenoid is jammed in. I have never heard of this and I don't even know if is possible.

Hi @elumphshie

If you pull the lucar connector ( spade connector) on the starter solenoid does it still try and start?

Cheers

If it does not try and start once the connector is disconnected , then reconnect and then try pulling the starter relay and swapping for another one.

Cheers
