Your starter button is good. Jump the terminals on the solenoid If the starter works every time applying power directly to the starter in this manner then the starter is good. The starter solenoid internal contacts are burnt stopping the power from flowing to the starter even though they are closing. Replace the starter solenoid and the problem should be fixed.

My 2000 Pontiac Montana won't start. I hear a clicking noise from the back but the starter doesn't engage

have somebody hit the starter with a hammer while somebody turns the key on the start position as he holds the key keep hitting the starter not at the solenoid at the round part if it tries to start then you have a defective starter now if you have a alarm system you are going to have tutoo isolate the starter to do a different test.

hi, your starter gear clutch bearing is "warning" you. It will fail shortly.That's a one way bearing that ""engages" your starter when you hit thr starter and "desingage" when the engine starts .
It'a also possible that you hear some noise when you stop the engine.Your bike must be around 30000 km ?

Even though you have charged the battery it could be bad and not giving you the cranking AMPS you need for high compression motors.
I'd try a new battery to see if it is the problem before changing the starter.

This sounds like your starter motor is stuck, this is not really my field, but maybe try to remove starter to see what the mesh gear looks like, maybe it is worn to much

Is the clicking noise coming from the starter? If it is I would say your bendix is shot and needs to be rebuilt.
