83' 900S 8V Starter Woes [saabnet.com]

Subject: 83' 900S 8V Starter Woes ================= I suspect someone out there with more experience may be able to tell me exactly what is going on with my '83.
Symptom started with a delay between the time I would put the key in 'start' position and the time the starter would actually start turning. That happened a number of times. Then sometimes the starter wouldn't kick in at all, unless I cycled the key on and off.
Now it won't turn at all. However, a couple of seconds after I put the key in the start position, there is a clicking in the relay bank up at the front of the driver's side firewall. It keeps clicking until I let off the key, but the starter won't kick in at all.
I have a new starter/solenoid, but don't want to go through the trouble of an R&R unless that's truly the problem.
Do these symptoms indicate a common condition?
Thanks.
