Battery may be bad. Try a jump start. If the engine light is staying on, have the computer scanned and post the trouble codes here. Do It Yourself Diagnosis and Repair
Do you mean it won't crank at all, or cranks but does not start. If the first, turn on headlamps and try to start. Do headlights dim? If not, you may have bad battery connections, bad solenoid, bad neutral safety switch. If lights dim, bad battery, connections, solenoid or starter motor.
abs not going to be the cause...possible passlock security system problem....does the security light flash rapidly when it wont start? it is common for the security system to act up on these vehicles
I think you're over your head here. Take it to a professional mechanic and let her sort it out. Sounds like your alternator isn't putting out the correct voltage.
that just means that your battery does not have enough charge to start your car. you need someone to jump start your car or you can take the battery out and take it down to autozone and have them charge it up for you.
could be a bad ( tps ) sensor it registers the amount of pedal you give it so it knows how much fuel to give the engine if the starting volts are not where they should be it won't start.
the problem could be the starter,battery, battery cables, or alternator. the clicking could most likely be the starter going bad if not bad already or the battery weak or bad battery cables, if you have good power to everything else radio headlamps and heater the i would start by replacing starterlet me know what you find.
you may find you have a bad earth somewhere, so i would check the earths. if you have a bad earth at wont matter how long you leave it running the charge will just dissipate, then i would check the alternator again if its not working it wont matter how long you leave your engine running it will not charge the battery.
