ITR 32 started clicking again wont start

Post by ITR#32 »

Well my car drove great since the last episode. It just started clicking again when I try and start it and its been fine for over a month. The only thing I did was take off my valve cover redo it and then put it back since then just clicks. Everything else is new battery starter solenoid. I check connections but you really cant tell since everything all covered up. Please help

Ok not sure what happened here but now whenever I try to start the car the fan kicks on. Did I blow a fuse fry a wire. I did try to jump the car but not sure what went wrong but dont think its good.

Ok so the battery tested less than 50% power left. Iam now recharging the battery but still trying to figure out why the clicking stopped and the fan turns on when I turn the ignition.

Sounds like the battery was just too low.
what was the reading of the volts?

And sometimes the battery can't take a charge and might need to be replaced. Twice I have bought weak/dead batteries from stores- just go back and tell them to check it and they should give you another.
