One solid click, tested starter, after bought, it checks good, same as battery. I think its wiring. Xar ran great prior to this issue. Anything else? Ground maybe?

You might consider using a Voltmeter and performing further testing and diagnosis.

Good job. You might consider replacing any corroded battery cables. What you don't see is the corrosion making it's way through he cable under the cable covering insulation.
