Problems starting my 2005 nissan frontier

the clicking that you hear is coming from the starter relay. sounds like your ignition starter switch or ignition lock cylinder is bad.

Check for spark. sound slike a distrubutor problem

Take one of the spark plugs out and let us know what it looks like. Dry and light grayish tan means you have spark but fuel supply problems. Wet spark plug that smells like gas means it is more of a spark issue.

Good Luck

Most likely a bad solenoid on the starter assembly. The clicking you hear is the solenoid trying to move the starter gear onto the flywheel and make the electrical connection to the starter.

Remove the starter (the solenoid is attached) from the truck and take it your friendly auto parts store for testing. While you are going in it is a good idea to bring your battery in for testing too. A starter near failure stresses the battery and can cause it to fail as well.

Try replaceing the starter realy but if itsa 5 speed try bypassing the clutch safety switch with a paper clip and you might see that it will start, the clutch switch is on the clutch pedal, if it's automatic it's on the brake switch.

try to turn the headlight on and start if the light gose off at the same time you need to replace the battery , but if its stay on and no start change the starter

Make sure you have 12 volts from the positive side of the battery to the starter. Check the small wire on the starter solenoid and make sure you have 12 volts when cranking engine. If voltage is correct, the starter is bad

does it just click when you turn it over if so try tapping on starter with key in start position

Does the starter crank the engine over? Saying your truck won't start could mean that the starter spins be the engine won't fire. If the starter is not spinning is it at least clicking?

hi i had same problem a few days ago brought to the dealership and turns out there is a clutch stop sensor that if it is not making contact will not allow you to start using the key part cost about $25 with labor it was $113 to be fixed at dealership seems it only last about 30-35k miles before breaking if yours is manual that could be your problem hope this helps
