Trev29, on Christmas Day, with extensive rain ended four hours earlier, car wouldn't start - not even a flutter this time, just a brief, sharp metal click mid-hood when turning key. (I have heard this before during these start attempts about which little seems consistent.) My son-in-law, visiting for the holiday, tried a jump. He hooked the cables traditionally, two cars connected battery post to battery post. My car did not respond at all. Curious if this attempt at a jump equates to the ground troubleshooting you suggested via jumper cable to negative post and engine block/head? The next morning, weather still dry, it was no surprise that the car started right up.
