I just want to make this clear, because I think we can diagnose a problem simply by distinguishing whether we hear one click, or a series of clicks (clickclickclickclick).
When I had a bad starter last week, I only heard one click. I replaced the starter and solenoid (both were jacked).
Now, when I tried to start it tonight, I hear clickclickclickclickclick. Like a machine-gun. I seriously doubt it's the starter or the solenoid, since they're both brand new, so I'm assuming it's the battery. (terminals, or cables, or the whole thing).
Am I correct in assuming this, and can we say for sure that the sound of multiple clicks under the hood (clickclickclickclickclick) is definitely a battery issue?
