If it is a single click, the problem is either a loose battery cable or a faulty starter relay/solenoid. If the symptom is rapid clicking, the battery is probaly low.
When the battery does not have enough voltage to turn the starter over it will sometimes make a clicking noise.
It might be the relay on its way out. Or might be nothing to worry about.
The brakes may make a clicking noise if the caliper is going bad. I just changed the brakes and the rotors and discovered my car was making a clicking noise. The garage I took it to replaced the caliper, so now it doesn't make the noise anymore.
Check your battery terminals one is either loose or the grounds are bad.... On the firewall.... The clicking is the starter not getting enough power... No Clicking means no power or bad starter..Or you killed the battery(no power).. Google starter problems etc...
Depends on what's wrong with the starter, exactly. It could be whirring sound, a clicking sound, no sound at all, etc.
Several possibilities: 1) battery does not have enough voltage to turn the starter; 2) faulty starter motor; bad battery connection.
Did you change the the relay? Look at the battery, follow the positive cable, goes to the starter relay, Is this clicking? Under $ 20.00, easy to change. Or just make sure you have good contact.
Needs a new starter
Beetles make a clicking noise!! (: (: (: (:
Does the engine turn over and then make the clicking noise while trying to start, or does it not do anything but make the clicking noise when you turn the key. If its not turning over at all then it might be a battery problem, Try cleaning the battery terminals, and/or charge the battery, Could also be the starter solenoid, but start with the battery first.
The 2001 Nissan Altima GXE might make a clicking noise and then turn off because of a bad solenoid or bad starter. This sound could also be due to a weak battery.
it makes that clicking noise because you touch yourself at night
