Why my 1999 six speed corvette won't crank just get a loud click. Battery is reading 12.24VDC. Cluch safety problem?

probably a bad starter. If it was a clutch safety problem it would not allow you to try and start your car. If your battery is good (and just because it reads 12.24 volts doesnt mean its good, it has to have the right output of amps also) then check your battery terminals and power and ground cables for good connections. If those are good then Id figure that loud clicking was your starter solenoid trying to engage the starter. If you have an external starter solenoid then you can try changing it out. If it is built into the starter then you need to look into a new starter. If you take your starter off you can take it down to a local auto parts store and get it tested before you go buy a brand new one. you can also get your battery tested at most auto parts stores.

Cadillac wont start or turn over?

No car can start until it turns over. Meaning the starter has to engage. So you have at least one problem or more. You have to have a good battery and it has to be 12.6 volts and remain at 8-12 vol;ts while trying to crank. When you cut the ignition on - the instrument panel has to light up and when you go to "start " you have to hear a soleniod in the starter go clunk. No clunk? There is a problem in the circuit to the soleniod. Clunks - but no turn over? Bad connection from the starter to the battery or bad starter.


What does clicking sound when trying to start indicate?

A weak battery. There is not enough voltage to hold the starter solonoid in.
