The motor clicks all lights and power come on but i am unsure of the location of the starter

If your unsure, follow the battery cables from the battery to the starter motor, it's held in with 3 bolts I believe, about 30 mins work, if in doubt get someone to help you with it.

constant clicking means the solenoid for your starter motor is either:
- Defective (not likely- since the click means it was working momentarily)
- Not getting enough power to stay on (battery is good for light, not for amperage of starter motor)
- Turns itself off due to overload amperage (seized starter motor/engine)

The clicking is commonly just an indicator of a dead battery; the solenoid clicks- connects power to the huge drain of the starter motor- then, as the amperage draw "browns out" the battery, not enough power is left to keep the solenoid on- clicks off. power drain is gone- solenoid clicks back on- (repeat until battery is REALLY too dead to even get the solenoid to click)

Its important to note that interior lights, dashboards, and stereos draw very little power, an are not good indicators of battery charge.

I would recommend getting a jump-start from somebody, before doing anything more intense. After engine is running, maybe bring it to a mechanic to check its battery charging circuit.

If dash lights come on then the battery is ok! I would check the starter motor, the clicking would indicate the starter solenoid is faulty......this is part of the starter motor!

Check connection at starter motor relay, the relay may be bad if you don't hear a "click". If it clicks, it works and the problem would then be the starter itself.

Locate your starter and with the vehicle in park have an assistant hold the key in the crank position while with a test light you check for power at the posts on the starter solenoid. One post shoul have power from the battery, the other from the ignition switch and the other should supply power to the starter motor. Make sure your battery is in good shape and fully charged. If all you get is a click from the solenoid then it's likely that you need a starter. If no power fom battery check battery and positive cable/connection for integrity and tightness. The small post is power from the ignition switch if no power her with the key on the crank position check fuses, park/neutral safety switch and it's related wiring.

Mmmm... this can occur if your battery is very low in power. Make sure your battery is at full power, you can turn your ignition on and view the lights that come on, then turn your headlights on, if the ignition lights dull down you don't have enough battery power. This is just a quick test, if the battery is ok, the starter motor is located at the back of the engine above the gear box.

Starter is bad check connections at battery n starter if their good u need a new starter motor

Do you hear clicking from the engine when trying the starter? If not sure, have someone try the starter while you listen at the engine. If it comes from the solenoid, it should be near the starter motor and have a large wire going from it to the starter motor and another large wire going to the battery positive post. If no clicks, check for a loose or blown fuse for the starter. Again, if it did click, you need a test light or a voltmeter to determine if the problem is the solenoid or it is the starter motor. You should read 12 volts DC on a meter or get light if using a test light. Check the battery side of the solenoid (light on) and try the starter. If the light stays on, the battery side cable is ok. Move to the starter terminal with the light and try the starter--if you get light, the starter motor is bad and needs replaced. If you get no light, then the solenoid is bad and needs replacement.

ignition switch. the one in the column where the key goes into. not exactly an easy replacement due to the airbag location as sometimes the mount screrws for the key switch retainer will be between the wheel and the column assembly requiring the wheel to be removed.

Hi, there is a little cable that in on the starter motor, probably you have just disconnect it, it happens to my pajero lot of times. look around the starter motor for a cable that is not going somewhere and then locate the little connector on the top and rear part of the starting motor. if this is not the case then try another battery, pretty sure one of the two is the problem.
