So my s13 has been acting up lately, I would drive from my house to the store or designated area, and most of the time my car would not start afterwards. I would have to jump start it or let it sit for an hour or 2 for it to start again, it's been happening a lot lately, I took my alternator to autozone to get it tested and it was bad so I replaced it but it was still doing the same thing, I tested my battery as well which is still good, can it be my wires? I've been having issues with my wires as well, can someone give me some ideas where I should start checking or know what is the problem, thanks in advance

More info. So does it just click? Does it wind slowly? Nothing at all? And when u jump does it start perfectly fine??

Yea it just clicks, It starts perfectly fine when jump start, I wanna say it could be an electrical problem, cause my tire has been rubbing against my wire harness, which I re taped a couple of times now

Loose ground or battery terminal perhaps?

I didn't think of that, I'll take a look at the ground wires tomorrow. My battery terminals are still good
