    When I turn the key starter rapidly clicks

    I let the battery charge some and also put the jumper box on it and got it to engage. I guess I’ll look into getting a battery now.

    When I turn the key starter rapidly clicks

    Is there any other things that could cause the relay to rapidly click or just the battery

    When I turn the key starter rapidly clicks

    The starter has been replaced. And is it still a battery issue if I’ve used a jumper box and got the same result
