CIVIC 2002 No start, Relay click on key turn - PLEASE ADVISE
I've got a 2002 Civic that has been doing me bloody well for 2 years now as my first car. It was driving as normal around a week ago only to be started one morning, then nothing... no starter click or burnout or any obvious noises.
I opened up my hood to discover that when I turned my key fully a single click could be heard from the blower motor relay. There is also a secondary click that sounds like a relay coming from the ABS control module that occurs after the first click.
Tried a blower motor relay replacement this morning and am getting the same two clicks
Has anyone had this problem before or got any ideas as to what could be the problem?
Thanks in advance for any responses

your car is a 7th Gen, fits better on that section. Moved your thread to there.
Check Battery
Check alternator.

Has the engine started since the issue began?
A weak battery or weak/failed starter solenoid will cause a clicking sound as well. Have you tried changing the battery or jumping it to get it started?
Also, with a fully charged battery, try tapping on the top of the starter solenoid with long screwdriver or socket extension plus rubber mallet, then try starting it.
If you have a helper then they can start it it while you tap on the starter solenoid.
