    97 Honda Accord won't start, just clicks.
    Hello! I have a '97 Honda Accord and it won't start at all. Yesterday morning it started up fine, I drove it to work and there was no issues. Around 11:30 over my lunch break I went out to my car to run to get lunch, it started up fine. I drove it to the fast food place and went back to work with no issues. I parked and went back into work. After work I went out to my car and it wouldn't do anything. When I turn the key I can hear the fuel pump working, and the check engine light comes on for about two seconds and shuts off with a click. If I turn the key to start, it clicks, but that's it. I went in to security and got a jumpstart, it started right up. I figured it was just a fluke so I drove it to the grocery store, and when I was trying to leave it wouldn't start again (probably about 45 minutes after shutting it off). I tried to jump it again, but it won't jump or anything, it still just clicks when I turn the key. I thought maybe it might have been the battery, but all the lights and radio and everything come on fine. Any ideas?

    I suspect your battery or starter motor is bad. Be sure to clean all connections.
