Clicking from engine bay fusebox.

[davojohnson]

Can anyone tell me what the problem is and how to fix it? I've had an electrical problems surface and my car won't start ans it blew the 30 amp fuse that powers the ignition and before that blew when I went to start it it was clicking in the fuse box in the engine bay when I try to start it. Any info is greatly appreciated.

Cheers.

Sounds like a bad connection. It's not just the battery terminals that need cleaning but the cables that are bolted to the terminals. Separate them and give them a clean. The clicking will be a relay not getting enough power.

There's no relay in the fuse boxes though, and that's where its clicking from now.

Must be a short somewhere to blow the 30 amp fuse. Not taking any power for accessories from the ignition?

Hey mate, it's fixed now and I don't know what it was exactly but I think it was a combo of bad connection, starter relay not hooked up properly and a few other things. Glad to see that problem fixed.

Cheers
