Nothing by either party was said about the starter. The battery and wires can all be in great shape, and if they are and the owner hears a clicking noise when trying to start it its a pretty good bet they may have a starter that's locked up.


One good 'ole trick on those starters. If you can reach the starter, a couple of sharp rapes with a hammer will have it starting again, then you know it time to replace the starter.

Hello and thank you for using FixYa!

If you have a Service Engine Soon light on, then most likely you need a cam or crank sensor. Those are the most common. I would have the car checked to verify.

Thanks Jay!

sounds like you need to check the connections from the battery to the starting motor and you may also need to check the connections to the solinoid motor as well
