Haven't driven my car for 5 days or so....

It won't start at the moment... thought it was the battery at first... but when I go to start it up there is a sort of electric ticking sound quite loud... and then nothing happens

any of you lot know what it could be?


Thanks

Tom
 
Could still be battery mate, ive had one before that was flat enough not to kick in the starter motor but it still try'd to engage the solenoid... hence the ticking sound.

Check the battery if ya can mate, par that get the charger out ;)

If its a single click when you try and start it its your starter motor mate ;) either flick the key in the ignition or whack the starter motor! Hopefully its just a flat battery thou
 
starter motor doesn't click atall if the solinoid is stuck, nothing happens, if the solinoid is stuck then its not gonna click, even once :p
