Problem overview

Some Dodge Dart owners report experiencing starting issues characterized by a rapid clicking noise, which may indicate a weak or dead battery, a failing alternator, or problems with the starter motor solenoid. Common causes cited include battery corrosion, poor electrical connections, and a faulty starter motor, all of which can lead to no crank situations. Additionally, aging batteries may struggle to provide sufficient voltage for starting, while problems with the RFHM, ignition node, or immobilizer SKIS signals can further complicate the starting process. Some owners also find that issues with the clutch interlock or a faulty starter contribute to their difficulties. It is recommended to check the connections on the starter for tightness or corrosion, as these factors could be responsible for the starting problems.
