DO you have a wiring diagram for starter relay Ford?
If you have a new starter with solenoid,do you still wire it to the firewall solenoid switch?Because wire is smoking on the switch and battery terminals. No rotation,just clicking.
Your car wont start you here a clicking noise coming from somewhere near the glove box could it be your starter solenoid?
It may be the starter solenoid that is clicking. If the battery is very low when you try to start the car, the solenoid will engage but the starter will not turn. Because the battery is so low, there is not enough power to hold the solenoid closed (in the start position) and try to turn the started so as the starter draws power, the solenoid clicks open, The starter doesn't draw any power with the solenoid open so the solenoid has power to close again, the starter tries to draw power and the cycle repeats. The sound seems to come from behind the glovebox because the solenoid is probably mounted on the passenger side of the engine compartment.
What causes a 2001 Nissan Altima gxe to make a clicking noise then turn off?

How do you remove and repair a 1999 Harley Sportster starter that only makes clicking sounds?
First check the battery, then check the starter solenoid by taking a peice of wire and touching the 12v pos. battery cable to the top of the starter where it goes in. It says in the manual to take it to a dealer because you have to take the starter apart to get to the solenoid... But i think it is the solenoid.... i had the same problem with my 1998 sportster XL 1200s. I took mine to a dealer.
Truck won't start because battery is dead and there is a clicking in fuse box?
Are you positive the battery is dead? Have you tried to jump start it? That clicking could be the starter relay.
When you turned the key in your car to start it you heard a clicking sound What could that be?
There are a few possibilities: Low battery, either because the alternator isn't keeping the battery charged or the battery is old and has failed. Corroded battery terminals, usually an indicator that the battery is blowing acid fumes. Batteries usually don't last long after the terminals start to corrode. Faulty starter solenoid. IT SOUNDS LIKE IT COULD BE YOUR STARTED CYLINOID
Why does your 1996 dodge caravan battery go dead when you turn the key and it wont turn over just make a clicking noise?
The key point to this question is that the battery goes dead!!. The clicking noise indicates a weak battery because it does not have enough charge to keep the relay/solenoid held in to engage starter. Try to get a jump, and if it starts, let engine run for about 10 minutes while driving or fast idle. Shut down engine and see if it starts, if it does, then check voltage with volt meter across battery terminals. It should be 14.5 or 15 volts. then shut down engine and it should read 12v - 12.5v. Make sure battery and starter and solenoid terminals are clean and tight. try again an hour later. If same thing happens, your battery is probably no good, because when it was running, the voltage across battery was 14.5v, meaning that your generator is charging.
