98 grand prix starter just clicks has new starter an battery starts every now an then?
If the starter clicks, but doesn't start the car, that indicates that the starter solenoid is working, but the commutator that actually spins the engine is not. Take the starter back and have it tested. The battery could also be at fault. If the battery doesn't supply enough power you'll get the same result. check the battery voltage first should be 12.6 volts if not jump the battery see if it starts.if it does bad battery.
Why is 1994 Isuzu Rodeo starter clicking. The starter solenoid clicks then the starter motor engages. HAYNES quotes problem is battery or starter solenoid contacts or starter motor connections.Ideas?
either clean and tighten cable connections or get battery tested. if not the battery, it is the solenoid or the starter If it is clicking and not starting at first, but starts after a few tries, its your starter taking a dump. Replace it.

KIA Spectra will not start just clicks and horn starts blowing?
I would check your charging system. If you turn over your key and your starter just clicks, it is usually a low battery charge or your starter is out. I would suggest jumping off your vehicle and taking it to autozone and have them do a charging test for free.

If the car does not start and the lights and horn works and there is no clicking sound when you turn the key could there be a problem with the starter?
Try removeing the battery connections, and cleaning them. Often, the symptoms you describe occur when the battery connections have corroded. use jumper cables and another vechile jumping to your battery, if it starts, then it is battery related
When you turn the key in your 87 corvette it just clicks and the battery is good but if you jam starter with screwdriver she starts rite up but only after you get her to click whats her problem?
== == Try tapping on the solenoid(smaller cylinder attached to starter) while someone tries to start it. If it starts then the solenoid is bad and the entire starter solenoid needs to be replaced.
You have a 91 talon tsi have power to everything but when you turn the key it just clicks once?
If the power goes off to everything when you hear the click it could be a corroded battery terminal. If lights just dim a little, it could be the starter or any of a number of other problems. If the lights dim a LOT, you might need a new battery. See if it starts when you connect jumper cables from a known good battery. If you haven't used jumber cables before, read and follow directions.
How do you know if the starter is bad on a 2000 Toyota Tundra?
If your battery is good but the starter motor just clicks instead of turning over it is bad, OR it turns over weakly or turns over and starts clicking then it is bad. If it turns over strongly and sounds OK then it is OK.
