Ok, I get in my car today to go to the store. Everything is cool. *Keys in*, go to turn the ignition. and I hear a click click sound coming from under my car :S, not one click but like lots. I dont know what is going on, I took my battery and got it tested and charged, Its fine. still wont start, My friend who is in college for mechanics said it could be my battery terminals? There all ****ed to ****. he said it couldnt be my starter, Becuase he said if it was the starter it would click once and thats it.

Any info?

 

im a mechanic this usually happens when the battery is almost dead if your battery is ok then try cleaning the terminals and one question if the battery was ok why did you charge it? and did it start up ok after you charged it?

 

no no, Not charged, just was tested lol, I dunno lol. Its a brand new battery and they said it was fine. Im going to try my terminals tomorrow. and No it didnt start up

 

also try checking the red power cable that goes from the battery to the fuse box and the starter i doubt that those cable would be damaged but it can be a posibility and if it isnt that then it has to be either bad battery or bad terminal connection if cleaning dont work try using a known good battery to make sure.

 

So Is there a chance Its my starter? This just randomly happend to so i dunno :S lol

 

did you see them test the battery lol? cause ive put in some bad new batteries in cars and maybe they thought oh its new it has to be good bs! well just try cleaning the terminals real good a metal brush helps

 

nah starters either work or dont work they dont "click" unless they arnt getting enough power then they "click"

 

I didnt tell them It was a new battery, And yea I saw them test it. Umm you should see my terminals man lol, There ****

 

lol well if it still dosnt start it is the battery just go over there and make em give you another one lol

 

lol ok thanks, I appreciate it. Im off to bed, ttyl

 

have you tried jumping it or push starting it? if your alternators fine it will start up one of those ways. well technically it will start up even if the alternator is gone but wont run long. push starting saves lives tho lol. give it a try.

 

could it be the solenoid? - wow im a newbie again (re-incarnated)

 

the starter solenoid or the ignition coil solenoid?

 

How much is a solenoid?

 

the starter solenoid- i know nothing about starters/solenoids or how they work, but had to replace one before and it make a clicking noise.
