When the system trys to start it makes a clicking sound near the voltage regulator and the batter is fully charged it will click like 3 times then times out,kind of sounds like a relay or something any advice is welcome
Have somone hold the start button while you measure the voltage across the battery. If it is less than 11 volts, then the battery is bad.
My light was red and when I put it into manual mode, it just clicked. When I jostled the contacts on the battery, it measured 13 vDC. After that, it started right up. I needed to clean the corrosion on the battery.
Measure the voltage at the Power terminal of the starter. When the switch is set to manual you should read aprox 12 volts at the starter. If not the starter contactor will require replacement. If 12 volts is measured the starter will require replacement

My cousin has one of these models and the same thing happened to his. It was the natural gas regulator valve that went out. He could hear the clicking noise which is the spark ignitor trying to ignite the gas pilot light. After replacing the gas regulator the unit work fine as ever

It sounds like the starter contacter is shot. I do not remember if the starter on this unit has a separate contacter or it is built onto the starter. I thought your starter might be shot, but you mentioned that you have full voltage going into the contacter and low coming out. Now, carefully, you could see if the starter is good by bypassing the contacter. Do this carefully. Take a battery jumper cable and connect one end to the starter cable on the contacter and touch the other to the battery end of the contacter. This will cause some sparks, but it will tell you if the starter turns or not.

if the noise is coming from the solenoid attached to the top of the starter replace it for the windings are shorted out causing the noise you hear

It could be either your start capacitor or the contactor-relay. Or you could try cleaning the contacts of the relay with an emery board to see if there is a change.

is engine running at 3600 to 3700 rpm at full load. most small engines run at this speed.you can buy a small tach on ebay TINY TACH.. you have to know what the engine speed is

i tryed the starter wit jumper cables and it worked,could it be the starter contact relay?
