Problem!!!

Just wondering whether anyone has experienced anything like this before. I went to start my R33 gts this morning and it didn't start. All i got was a loud clicking sound from the engine. The engine didn't even turn over. Its an extremly loud, quick, repeated clicking sound...Any ideas?

Not Battery????

The clicking means your solinoid is getting power, you might want to pop the bonnet and check your battery with a volt meter, but most likely it is your starter.

Thats good, less costly then the others

Was it just very low? ie enough to power the soliniod but not enough to even turn your engine over?

Yeah thats right...it was just very low. I had only driven it the day before, and radio lights etc could all be powered, but not enough to start it. Good for me!! :smoker2:
