Hi, this is Bo, an auto expert on RepairPal's Car Genius team! Ion know why it died while driving and now only clicks when attempting to start! When you hear a clicking noise and your car won't start, it's often a sign of a weak battery or poor connection or even a failed alternator. Here's what might be going on: The clicking noise typically comes from the starter solenoid trying to engage but not getting enough power. This could be due to a discharged battery, corroded or loose battery terminals, or a faulty starter motor. First, check the battery terminals for corrosion or looseness. If they look good, try jump-starting the car using jumper cables and another vehicle with a good battery. Let it run for a while to recharge your battery if it starts. If jump-starting doesn't work, it might be a deeper electrical issue or a worn-out starter motor. In that case, it's best to have a mechanic take a look. They can diagnose the problem accurately and get you back on the road quickly If you have any other questions, please call us at 877-913-1554!
