When you turn the key (or push the button) to start the engine, a control module or the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.carparts.com\/ignition-switch\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\" aria-label=\"ignition switch\">ignition switch<\/a> energizes the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.carparts.com\/starter-relay\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\" aria-label=\"starter relay\">starter relay<\/a>. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"739\" src=\"https:\/\/www.carparts.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/02\/Starter-circuit-1-5-1024x739.jpg\" alt=\"Starter circuit 1 5\" class=\"wp-image-23236\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.carparts.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/02\/Starter-circuit-1-5-1024x739.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/www.carparts.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/02\/Starter-circuit-1-5-300x216.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.carparts.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/02\/Starter-circuit-1-5-768x554.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.carparts.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/02\/Starter-circuit-1-5-150x108.jpg 150w, https:\/\/www.carparts.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/02\/Starter-circuit-1-5.jpg 1178w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\"><figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\">A typical starting circuit<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>Electricity then flows from the battery, through the starter relay, and to the starter solenoid. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Most modern vehicles have the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.carparts.com\/starter\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\" aria-label=\"starter solenoid\">starter solenoid<\/a> mounted directly on top of the starter. Once the solenoid is energized, it moves a plunger that forces the starter motor&rsquo;s pinion gear to engage the engine&rsquo;s flywheel (or flexplate). <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>At the same time, the plunger pushes a disc against a set of contacts, allowing the battery current to flow through the solenoid to the starter. As a result, the starter motor cranks the engine to get it going. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>So what does it mean if your car clicks but won&rsquo;t start? If you hear a clicking noise (but nothing else) when trying to start your car, that means the starter solenoid or relay contacts are operating, but the starter isn&rsquo;t cranking the engine. The click may be a rapid chattering sound or it may just be one or two audible clicks. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<div id=\"article-search-widget\">\n<div class=\"cp-search\">\n<div align=\"center\">\n<img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/cld.partsimg.com\/image\/upload\/w_auto,dpr_auto\/carparts\/logos\/badge_wordmark\/full_color\/CP_LOGO_COLOUR_RGB\" alt=\"CarParts.com\" width=\"300\" height=\"56\">\n<\/div>\n<form id=\"cpsearchform\" name=\"cpsearchform\" action=\"https:\/\/www.carparts.com\/search\" method=\"get\" target=\"_blank\" accept-charset=\"character_set\" aria-label=\"search CarParts.com\">\n    <input type=\"text\" class=\"keyword\" name=\"q\" placeholder=\"Search for parts on CarParts.com\" value=\"\" aria-label=\"Search CarParts.com\"><input type=\"submit\" class=\"btn-search\" value=\"Search\" aria-label=\"Search\">\n<\/form>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Common Causes of a Car That Clicks When Trying to Start <\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>There are two primary types of no-start conditions: no-crank-no-start and crank-no-start.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Crank-no-start condition<\/strong> &ndash; when the engine cranks normally (or faster than normal) but doesn&rsquo;t fire up.

Such a scenario is usually the result of one of the following problems: <\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Dead Battery <\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>A dead battery is the most common cause of a clicking noise when trying to start your car. Usually, you will hear a rapid succession of clicks. The noise indicates that the starter solenoid or relay is operating, but there isn&rsquo;t enough battery current to turn the starter motor. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>In some cases, if the battery is depleted enough, there won&rsquo;t be sufficient electrical energy to open and close the solenoid or relay multiple times. When that happens, you&rsquo;ll likely hear either just one or two clicks or nothing at all. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Faulty Starter <\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Although not nearly as common, a <a href=\"https:\/\/www.carparts.com\/blog\/bad-starter-symptoms\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\" aria-label=\"faulty starter\">faulty starter<\/a> can result in a clicking sound when attempting to start your car. Usually, you&rsquo;ll hear just a single click rather than chattering. The sound means the starter solenoid is (unsuccessfully) attempting to engage the starter. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Loose or Corroded Battery Terminals or Cables<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Loose or corroded battery terminals or cables can create excessive electrical resistance in the starting circuit. As a result, the starter solenoid or relay may operate, but there won&rsquo;t be enough current to spin the starter. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large is-resized\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"683\" src=\"https:\/\/www.carparts.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/11\/corroded-car-battery-1024x683.jpeg\" alt=\"corroded car battery\" class=\"wp-image-19322\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.carparts.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/11\/corroded-car-battery-1024x683.jpeg 1024w, https:\/\/www.carparts.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/11\/corroded-car-battery-300x200.jpeg 300w, https:\/\/www.carparts.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/11\/corroded-car-battery-768x512.jpeg 768w, https:\/\/www.carparts.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/11\/corroded-car-battery-600x400.jpeg 600w, https:\/\/www.carparts.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/11\/corroded-car-battery-150x100.jpeg 150w, https:\/\/www.carparts.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/11\/corroded-car-battery.jpeg 1500w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\"><figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\">Loose or corroded battery terminals or cables can create excessive electrical resistance in the starting circuit.<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Engine Mechanical Problem <\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Many people forget that an engine mechanical problem can also prevent a vehicle from starting. If the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.carparts.com\/blog\/engine-seized-symptoms-plus-faq\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\" aria-label=\"engine is seized\">engine is seized<\/a>, the starter motor solenoid or relay will close, creating an audible click. But because the engine is locked up, the starter won&rsquo;t be able to turn it over to start the vehicle. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">A Faulty Starter Solenoid <\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>If the starter relay is working but the solenoid is not, you may hear the relay click&#8288;&mdash;but the solenoid will not engage the starter to crank the engine. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Malfunctioning Alternator<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>The alternator keeps your battery charged and powers other components. As such, a vehicle not starting could have a faulty alternator since the battery doesn&rsquo;t have enough power to start the engine.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">How to Find Out What&rsquo;s Causing Your No-Start &amp; Clicking Noise Problem<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Now that you&rsquo;ve read the section above, you might be wondering: Is the clicking noise\/no-start problem with my car due to a bad battery, a faulty starter, or something else? The only way to know for sure is to test each potential culprit&#8288;&mdash;starting with the battery. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">1. Check the Battery, Terminals, and Cables   <\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>When your car won&rsquo;t start, and all you get is a clicking noise, the battery is usually to blame. Begin your inspection by making sure the battery terminals are clean and tight, and that the battery cables are in good condition.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Next, check the battery&rsquo;s state of charge using a digital multimeter (DMM). If your battery has less than about 12 volts, you&rsquo;ll want to charge it, then test it with a load tester. Most people don&rsquo;t have access to a load tester, but nearly all auto parts stores do, and they&rsquo;ll test your battery free of charge. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large is-resized\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"685\" src=\"https:\/\/www.carparts.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/11\/checking-car-battery-with-multimeter-1024x685.jpeg\" alt=\"checking car battery with multimeter\" class=\"wp-image-19321\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.carparts.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/11\/checking-car-battery-with-multimeter-1024x685.jpeg 1024w, https:\/\/www.carparts.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/11\/checking-car-battery-with-multimeter-300x201.jpeg 300w, https:\/\/www.carparts.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/11\/checking-car-battery-with-multimeter-768x514.jpeg 768w, https:\/\/www.carparts.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/11\/checking-car-battery-with-multimeter-600x400.jpeg 600w, https:\/\/www.carparts.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/11\/checking-car-battery-with-multimeter-150x100.jpeg 150w, https:\/\/www.carparts.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/11\/checking-car-battery-with-multimeter.jpeg 1500w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\"><figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\">When your car won&rsquo;t start, and all you get is a clicking noise, the battery is usually to blame. <\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>You can learn more about testing your battery in this <a href=\"https:\/\/www.carparts.com\/blog\/how-to-test-a-car-battery-with-a-multimeter\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\" aria-label=\"article on how to test a battery with a multimeter\">article on how to test a battery with a multimeter<\/a>. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">2. Check that Power is Getting to the Starter Solenoid<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Did the battery, terminals, and cables check out okay? If so, you&rsquo;ll want to check whether power is getting to the solenoid on top of the starter. You can do this with an assistant and a DMM, as outlined in our <a href=\"https:\/\/www.carparts.com\/blog\/bad-starter-symptoms\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\" aria-label=\"article on symptoms of a bad starter\">article on symptoms of a bad starter<\/a>. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>If you hear a clicking noise, but there&rsquo;s no power at the solenoid, there&rsquo;s a problem with the starter control circuit. Because the clicking indicates that the relay is working, you&rsquo;ll want to focus on the portion of the circuit between the relay and the starter. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>On the other hand, if you&rsquo;ve got power to the solenoid, but the vehicle won&rsquo;t start, you may have either a bad starter or an engine mechanical problem. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">3. Test the Starter <\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>The next step is to check the starter. These days, the starter solenoid and motor usually come together as a single assembly. You can check both components by performing a starter bench test, as discussed in the same article (on bad starter symptoms) linked above.<\/p>\n\n\n\n    <div class=\"perspective-widget\">\n        <div class=\"pt-child-wrap\">\n\n            <div class=\"pt-col-item1\">\n                <figure class=\"aligncenter size-large\">\n                        <img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/cld.partsimg.com\/image\/upload\/dpr_auto,f_auto,q_auto\/carparts\/blog\/plugins\/amp\/avatar-comments\" class=\"com-thumb\" alt=\"Avatar of CarParts.com Research Team\" width=\"100\" height=\"100\">\n                <\/figure>\n                <p>\n                    <strong>Erieric<\/strong> \n                    <span>User<\/span>\n                <\/p>\n            <\/div>\n\n            <div class=\"pt-col-item2\">\n                <div class=\"protip-desc\">\n                    <div class=\"perspective-help-tip\">   \n                        <p>There&rsquo;s more than one way to look at an issue. &ldquo;Community Perspectives&rdquo; highlight authentic personal viewpoints and real-life experiences by the CarParts.com community, including our readers, experts, and product specialists, among others.
