Look for a loose or corroded battery cable connection or a faulty starter solenoid/relay switch.

A single click and no response from the starter usually indicates a faulty starter relay/solenoid switch. It could also be a loose connection on the battery cable.

If there is a starter click but your car want start what could be wrong?
One of a few things depending on the click. If it makes consecutive clicks when you turn the key (click,click,click,click) then the odds are the battery is dead or in need of charging and there just isn't enough charge to fully engage the starter and turn over the engine. If it clicks just once, the selenoid is usually bad, or the starter is "locked" and will need to be replaced.
My 94 Toyota corolla ex clicks once when i turn the key and engine wont turn. the 2nd or 3rd time i turn the key it does start but even then it clicks and then starts?
The starter solenoid/relay switch is going bad. Eventually, it will just click and not start.
Will a bad starter cause check engine light to come on?
No. ] it most certainly can cause the check engine light to come on. Not per say as it being a bad starter but if the wire connections r dirty or the connection aint connected good. exspesally on a manual trans. I beg to disagree. I have never seen a bad starter set a check engine light. Not once.
Toyota Echo won't start and clicks once?
Possibly the battery has run down. Process of elimination, check to make certain battery cables make good contact with the battery, charge the battery, have it tested, or receive a boost. Next if unsuccessful check the starter, and alternator.
Starter in your ford explorer not engaging you need to locate it and hit it with a hammer?
If the starter motor is spinning but not engaging it won't help to hit it with a hammer. The "starter drive" portion of the starter is shot. If all you get is a click or no noise at all, you might get lucky by hitting it, assuming the battery and all connections are good. This technique may work once or twice if the starter is at fault. The starter is located under the vehicle. You can follow the path of the positive battery cable from the battery to locate the starter. The positive battery cable will pass thru the starter solenoid on the inner fender then continue down to the starter.
