truman Posted December 14, 2012 Share Posted December 14, 2012 it was working fine yesterday, now it will not start it just makes a clicking sound any advice is more than welcome thanks. First port of call would be the battery..the clicking you can hear is a solenoid which closes to turn the starter motor..you've obviously not got enough juice in the battery to turn the starter..in my opinion.. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Starter_solenoid Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
