Why does my Jeep make a clicking sound when I start it?
Why does my Jeep make a clicking sound when I start it? It sounds like you are hearing the starter solenoid clicking. If you get one click from the engine compartment when turning the key to the start position that's sign that the starter drive gear has hit the flywheel but the starter motor itself isn't running to crank the engine. What to do when your Jeep won't start? Other people just put in Neutral and she starts right up. Auto, or manual? If auto, put Jeep in neutral and try to start. I have to tap my shifter up...
