Clicking then starts.
2014 model I believe. Issue started about 3 days ago. I started the car, and it clicks until the engine starts and runs properly. When I start it at night, the headlights and dash board will blink until the clicking stops. Also when I drive over bumps, the alarm (hoking) will go off.
I was going to just get a new battery, so I went in and had a mechanic listen to the click in case it was something else and of course it started right up without any issue. I just drove off without a new battery because I thought it might of been the USB charger draining the battery or something. However it went back to the clicking this morning. Any thoughts?

Re: Clicking then starts.
Check your alternator output, check the battery and the battery connections.
If it clicks once and nothing else, repeatedly, then starts normally, it is probably the contacts in the starter solenoid. They can be replaced with parts from Toyota at minimal cost. Bring your VIN number to a Toyota parts department and order the two sets of contacts. Search the Camry FAQ thread for the post related to this issue. Easy and cheap fix.
