Remove the starter and test with a battery and jumper cables or bring to parts store and have them test it. Make sure the starter is functioning correctly and then move on from there.

Do you have the correct ecu for your engine?

Starter shouldn't click. Usually it does nothing or makes the starter sound the beginning sound while starting a car, err err err err.

clicking is usually battery related.
-dead battery
-loose connections at battery terminal
-disconnected grounds

Re: Help car not cranking

single click or multiple clicks?

If it's multiple clicks, I"d venture a guess it's battery related. Battery dead, bad grounds, etc.

Single click, I'd look to the starter for the issue. Try smacking the ever-living **** out of the starter motor and try again. Still no dice? Prolly bad starter
