parasitic draw....some switch or something has gone bad and is causing something to stay on when you car is off.....or.....the battery connection is not good. if there is corrosion on the terminal ends(s) or if it is a side post battery, then there is a chance that the bolts are cross threaded. these would be the things too look for
The alternator is not charging the battery, therefore, the coil is getting it's charge only from the battery.
It could be a starter problem....can you tell where the click is coming from? is it the started clicking, or a relay clicking?
Usually this means the battery is worn out and there isn't enough charge to turn over the starter
Sounds like a dead battery. Try charging the battery, then start.
Then your battery is still not charged. The clicking sound is the solenoid that has a little gear on it that engages with the ring gear of the engine to spin it. There is a certain amount of voltage needed to push that solenoid into the ring gear and your battery isn't putting out enough. You'll need a jump to get started and then need to consider the battery.
one is most places test for free. but the easy at home way to check is get your car jump started if its not starting on its own. after its running, pull the negative off the battery taking special car not to arc your wrench on anything. if its keeps running, alternator is good. if it dies, get it replaced. if the alternator is bad, it may have killed the battery, so get it tested and replaced if needed.
make sure the small wire is hook to the post
Possibly harmonic balancer or pully. I replaced battery, checked alt. and other parts. Was told it was fly wheel, but mine is automatic, doesn't have one! It has a flex plate.
Try putting a new battery in it ,make sure your battery cables are tight,get your car started and go to Auto Zone they will check it for free.
It sounds like you have a break in the wire which connects your alternator to your battery, get it checked out.
You have a Dead Battery!!
could be a bad battery connection or dead battery i had the same problem with my jeep Did you check the starter motor itself without the solenoid? Quite possibly worn brushes and/or dirty/worn/shorting motor armature. could be the ignition switch, is the clicking coming from under the steering column?
