The battery is whooped. Most case scenarios point to the following things as a basic trouble shoot for similar symptoms.
A: Battery.
B: Alternator not charging battery. Should be at least 13.7 volts at battery while engine is running, if not the alternator and/or regulator is bad.
C: Starter. Starter may have bad bushings and/or bendix. Not logical to rebuild much so anymore. New is best option.

When the starter button is pushed on 2003 Honda Fourtrax 350 what causes it to click?
dead battery
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.
Your E-350 van wont start there is a click sound when turning the key?
You should check your voltage on your battery first to make sure it is not dead. You should check your battery cables if your battery checks out to be fine

you click above the balloon and her should fly up there poping the balloon
1994 Ford Escort turn key click but no start?
Seized engine? Loose or corroded battery cables? Weak battery? Bad starter solenoid? Bad starter? Bad neutral or clutch safety switch?
What causes a car not to start or turn over or click or nothing?
This could be the voltage regulator. Both the positive from the battery and the starter would be connected to it.
Why wont your 1998 Ford ranger start all you hear is a click it has a new starter and the battery is fully charged?
You have a voltage drop in either the positive or negative battery cable. Clean all of your cable end connections ( at the starter, the engine block and again at the battery terminals). You have a voltage drop in either the positive or negative battery cable. Clean all of your cable end connections ( at the starter, the engine block and again at the battery terminals).
Why will the starter not click and try to crank sometimes on my E350 van when all the other electronics work?
check the battery voltage (14 volts and above) and check the solenoid
Why doesn't my 1987 ford ranger start All i hear is a click behind the glovebox when i try?
Seized engine? Weak or dead battery? Loose or corroded battery cables? Bad starter solenoid? Bad starter? Bad clutch or neutral safety switch?
Where is the battery on camp pine hooda math?
The battery is in the cabin with the red flag, click on the alarm clock and on the bottom right of it, it should have a picture of a battery, click that and it will flip the clock around. Then you click the slot where the battery is and take it. (:

You click on the remote of the TV and the battery will appear in your screen then you click your backpack click use battery near the remote car .
When you turn the key all you hear is a clicking noise and some say that its the starter but you don't know?
If the voltage level of the battery is low, turning the key to "Start" can cause a further voltage drop and you'll hear the click. Sometimes the low voltage condition will be such that the starter is engaged, drops voltage below a threshold, the solenoid disengages because of low voltage condition then the voltage comes back up enough to re-engage the solenoid and it clicks again. In either case, if you have a volt-meter check the voltage of the battery while someone attempts to start the engine. If the voltage stays anywhere near 12 Volts, check both battery terminal connections. If either is dirty you may just need to clean the contacts. If the battery voltage is down near 7 or 8 Volts when you try to start the vehicle your battery voltage is too low to do much good. The battery COULD be bad or the alternator may just not be charging. Don't just replace the battery until you are able to determine if it's a battery or alternator problem. With the same volt meter, check the battery voltage when the engine is running. The alternator SHOULD bring the battery voltage up to 13.5 volts (or near enough) and if it doesn't, you probably have a charging problem. In either case, have a reputable parts store, like Checker Auto, Kragen Auto, Auto Zone or Pep Boys check the charging system and the battery to find out what's wrong. In some cases the starter can be faulty and drawing too much current but they can check that too.
