Starting Problems.

Parked the car Earlier in the day.. and came back to it not starting..



Everything powers on.. Radio works, wipers, lights, everything.


But when i try to start it... that dreadful Clicking noise..


I haven't checked my Fuses yet, but i have a hunch it might be the terminal... Anyone have any ideas or can i get some help?

That used to happen to me all the time. negative battery terminal was all corroded and not seated right. I'd have to wiggle it around a little, trying to force it down more, then eventually the engine would start. If your terminal cables are loose, dirty, or corroded, give it a try.

Great news. Glad I could help. Make sure you plop some of that anti-corrosion crap on the terminals. It'll help out in the long run.
