SOURCE: I have a 2003 mitsibishi

Its the electric actuator motor that opens and closes the fresh air door for the a/c. You will notice the clicking stops when you adjust the a/c temperature setting during the clicking. I got a replacement for my 99 from a junkyard and changed it out. I've seen dozens of complaints of this problem online.....i had thought it was only mine. I guess it was a poorly manufactured part.

SOURCE: 2003 Galant Clicking noise when trying to start.

It is your battery it may not be completly dead but it is too dead to run the starter. It take 300 -600 amp to run a starter and 20 amp to run a stereo

SOURCE: Loud pop, timing belt ? , mitsubishi diamante 00

Very possible it was the timing belt. If the main serpentine belt seems loose, it also coould be your pulley. If you can check it now, the tensioner pulley is the one you see that is very silver looking on the side that actually supports the OUTSIDE of the belt. If you can go take a look at it now, grab ahold of it and try to move it. The only motion it should make is a spinning motion....this will be step one on figuring out the problem....will take one minute to verify.....

63 FALCON RANCHERO STARTING PROBLEM WILL CRANK BUT WONT START WHAT COULD I DO TO GET IT STARTED?

3 things you need for the car to run. Fuel,Spark and air.
Check to see if the carb is pumping fuel. If not then check the fuel pump. Check the spark to see if you are getting spark. If not check coil or points. And air should be about the most simple thing to get.

My 1990 Cadillac Deville wont start or engage starter

Sounds like you blew fuse. Fix fuse and borrow a car starting switch they use at car repair shops. As long as you can turn tumbler to on ,you can start using the starting switch from repair shop..There should be a way to run a start button to start car and your off/on key should be OK

white smoke points to a head gasket issue, If your coolant is low and smells and looks weird then get the car tested to be sure.

2000 Diamante, Timing Belt ? Loud pop, explosion, bang...

sounds like the belt tensioner. look for any drive pulley that doesn't actually drive anything but is turned by the belt... that is spring loaded and keeps tension on the belt... if it moves freely... it needs to be replaced.
