Check the ignition switch itself, sounds like it may be the problem.
It is RFI generated from the ignition system. dI/dT very fast di/dt is rf
It can be interferance caused by Fluorescent lights, Transformers, (such as battery chargers) switchless lights, you name it. Anything that plugs into electric current in your home can in one form or another. In your quest to find the problem, you will often overlook what the actual problem is.
Terrestrial noise is noise that originates on the earth. Extra terrestrial noise comes from space.
I just had the same thing happen with my Nissan. Your car died because your battery is bad. The clicking sound is also because your battery is bad most likely. It could be your starter, but always start with the cheap and easy fixes before moving on. If it's not you battery it is either you starter or your ignition.
you have a magnetic starter on this vehicle, the starter is no good, you might try to hit it with a hammer to get it to start.
The ticking noise is the metal cooling.
fan clutch
why does my 1996 ford tarus wagon make noise when i turn key in ignition
The cast of The Lights and Then the Noise - 2012 includes: Emily Taaffe as Girl
It doesn't make noise its mint. and its a 96 so get your facts straight son
What kind of noise: A motor hum? A high-pitched sound? Which lights: the kitchen lights? The ceiling fan light? Sounds like you have your lights on a dimmer and that will cause a high-pitch sound. The noise is motor hum and a "clinking noise" almost like the glass domes are loose (they aren't). The lights I was referring to are the ceiling fan lights. I am not using a dimmer switch. Also, it is a Hunter ceiling fan (I don't know the model. It was a mid-range fan as far as price: $109.00)
you shorted something. is there a wire grounding out somewhere?
there might be a bubble in your radiator
It may not be the fan making "more" noise when you turn on the lights. It may actually be the bulbs making noise. Incandescent bulbs when operating on a dimmer make a high pitched noise - it is the filament vibrating. Try just the lights without the fan and see if you hear anything.
Sounds like a very weak battery.
You know your ignition switch has gone out when you turn the key and there is no click or any noise at all. If there is a click or other audible noise it is probably the spark plug or something of that sort.
It sounds like your ignition timing timing is too far advanced. It will need resetting.
