2002 SL2 Sedan Won't Start
 
Battery is fine...Lights work, radio works etc... I turn the key and get a clicking noise only...any ideas as to what is wrong?

1)Check battery cables for corrosion and good connection positive at battery and starter, negative at battery and ground connection to frame.
2)Have battery load tested

If these check out ok, probably starter solenoid. whack it with a hammer and see if car starts. If it does, confirms theory.

Starter solenoid is integral to starter---can replace separately but recommend new starter.

Thanks... I'll give it a try in the morning

It was just a dead battery. Put a new one in and it started right up. Thanks for the help!

No problem. Glad it was a quick fix
