Another one of my typical, rookie questions. Temp has dropped a good bit here in Birmingham over the past month, and I haven't had a chance to run my IIA as much recently as I would like.
Unable to start her last weekend, I jump started fine, ran her around town, and started again after parking with no problem. Yesterday, I had to jump start again, let her idle for 10 minutes, then turned off to see if I could re-start without a jump.
When I tried to re-start, I could not. With the key in, the heater came on, I could turn on turn signals, and other electrical components. However, when I turned the key to start, I got a quick/rapid, "clicking" sound but the engine would not attempt to turn over.
Is this a starter problem? Other diagnoses?
Thanks!
