Probable cause is the contacts inside the ignition switch are dirty or worn out. Some switches can be opened and the contacts cleaned quite easily, whereas others can be more difficult. Only 100% fix is to replace the switch part of the ignition switch assembly.
I know about the starter and ignition, but I click the ignition and then it clicks, then when I press and hold the starter it starts then immediatly stalls, I have tried it in neutral, in gear, with clutch, without clutch, with clutch and throttle.
start with checking the battery, next check the solenoid,next check the starter motor.then check ignition switch
sounds as if the starter is going bad.
car starts without key
you need a new ignition tumbler.
Aaah sussed it - loose connection to solonoid - Doh!!!
first thing i wouldn't try to start the motor more than a few times, and then let the starter cool down, then try again. the starter solenoid may have bad brushes and need rebuilt, or the starter relay may be defective and need replaced.
Answer 1 - Vehicle Will Start When "Jumped"There could be several causes, but based on "...clicks once won't start starts when jumped.." suggests that there is something wrong within the cables or terminal clamps or connectors [corrosion inside that can't be observed] between the battery and solenoid, OR possibly a defective solenoid.
No, if it starts on its own without you turning the ignition switch then the ignition switch is defective.
Your battery is dead. Turn your lights off next time.
The starter solenoid/relay switch is going bad. Eventually, it will just click and not start.
Turn on the ignition switch and then turn it fully clockwise until the engine starts.
