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.

If a 2001 Polaris 90 Sportsman ATV started clicking when you try the start button what could be the problem?

Sounds like a dead battery. Try charging the battery, then start.


What causes a clicking sound and the car not to start when the battery is charged?

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.


How can you tell if the alternator is bad on a 1984 camaro?

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.

I have a 2001 Lexus IS300. When I tried to turn it over today it tried to go but then started clicking. I tried it again and it just clicked. The electronics are working. What is the problem?

You have a Dead Battery!!


Ihave 1992 mustang LX 4 cylinder replaced solenoid checked starter battrey cables etc you origianly replaced solenoid and it started for a day now it acts like it did before just clicks?

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?
