There's a rapid clicking when I try to start the engine. What can be the cause of that?
There are several potential causes of a rapid clicking sound when you try to start the engine. The battery is not providing enough power to the starter motor. This can happen if the battery is old or has been damaged by extremely cold weather. There is a problem with the starter motor itself. This could be due to a buildup of dirt and debris, or it could be a more serious issue, such as a damaged solenoid. If the clicking sound persists after you've tried cleaning the starter motor, it's best to take the car to a mechanic for further diagnosis. Other potential causes of a clicking sound when starting the engine include a faulty ignition switch or a problem with the fuel system. Again, if you're unsure what is causing the problem, it's best to consult with a qualified mechanic.
