From the subjective word 'crank' I think you have a dead battery. Not enought juice to turn the motor over...
It could very well mean your battery is dead. A good suggestion is to try another battery which is known to be good and/or carefully try to jumpstart the vehicle with jumper cables and another battery.
check battery for corrosion. It happens to me 4-5 times a year.
You're right it could be a dead battery, the starter, the soleniod, or even the alternator. My guess try jumping the car or charge the battery.
your number of clicks inproves the higher the rank because you need more clicks when you try to get to a higher rank
Locate the switch on clutch pedal, unhook it and try to crank it if it does not attemo to crank tie the two wires tgether and grank it. all you are doing is tricking vehicle and making it think the cluch is pressed in, I have done it to my 97 hardbldy. Just use caution because it will try to crank no matter where the shifter is
A single click when you try to start the vehicle usually indicates a corroded/loose battery cable or a faulty starter solenoid/relay switch.
Honestly it depends on the sound you are hearing when you try to crank it over. This is not 100% accurate, however in most cases if the vehicle does either of the following... 1. Clicks multiple times in succession 2. Does nothing at all, but you have dash lights and so forth It is either a bad battery or battery connection. If the vehicle makes one loud click then in most cases it is a starter issue. Good Luck!
It could be a dead battery.
Usually, the RPM guage wont jump when u try to crank it.
It could mean Remotely Piloted Vehicle. For other possibilities please try the RPV wikipedia page or google.
The alternator might be the problem.
You need a new battery!
