Best Answer

you have a bad connection somewhere. If your terminals are clean. Then check the connection to the starter, that's the motor that turns the engine over. Follow the red cable (the positive lead) that cable will have (should have) a nut on it.Tighten that or wigglle it, try the ignition switch, if it starts you know that's the problem.

If that's not it then it could be the neutral safety switch. You will need some experience to locate that.

Car goes click click when you try to start but turns over with a boost?

The battery does not have sufficient voltage to start the car when it's cold. Have the battery checked out. If it still goes click click after running the car for a while, have the alternator checked also. A bad battery will not hold a charge and a bad alternator will not recharge the battery, (That is the reason to have the battery checked first). Make sure the connections at the battery are clean and tight.
