Maybe. But maybe you need just a starter selenoid. And maybe you need a new battery.

Probably Not.


1997 BMW 740il wont start clicking under hood?

When you turn the key, does the car just click...or do you hear cranking too? If all you hear is a click, it's a starter problem. Something that's easy to try is to get under the car with a hammer and LIGHTLY!!!! tap the starter while someone tries to crank the engine. A lot of times they just stick, and doing this will clear them up.


What could be wrong with a 1995 Chevy Caprice if when you turn the key to the start position you hear a click under the hood and when you release it you hear a second click?

It could be a bad starter, or a weak battery. The clicking sounds like the solenoid is engaging, or trying to engage.


Honda passport does not start with new battery and hear a single click when trying to start is it the starter or something else?

I had this problem last night with my 96 Isuzu Rodeo (same as Passport). The towing guy climbed asked me to be in park and engage the brakes. Then he climbed under the hood and banged the starter with a wrench while I tried starting the car. It started. Today it starts fine, but he told me to get it replaced. Usually a single click means the starter solenoid/relay switch is faulty. The whole starter does not have to be replaced due to a bad relay switch.


96 Olds aurora wont start clicking noise from under the front panel.?

If the 1996 Olds Aurora will not start and there is a clicking noise from under the front panel, check the starter. The clicking noise is probably from the starter solenoid.
