Clicking, but no starting
I recently replaced the clutch and flywheel on my 92 1.5l Civic LX. It
was running just fine, but now when I turn the key all i hear is a
clicking noise. It sounds like the solenoid is working, but the
starter motor is not turning, any thoughts or corrections.
Thanks

Probably a worn starter solenoid;IIRC,Civic starters have a replaceable
solenoid....without having to replace the entire starter,but if that's not
the case,as was with my 94 Integra,then check out this site;
http://www.nationsautoelectric.com/Nippondenso.html
You can buy replacement solenoid contacts and plunger and "rebuild" the
solenoid yourself at considerable savings.It only cost me $30 USD PPD to do
my starter.The hardest part was getting the lower starter bolt out,in order
to remove the starter assembly for rework.It was frozen into the aluminum
block...the bolt has long threads.Replacing the contacts and plunger was
easy.
The problem is that the contacts inside the solenoid get eroded by the
starter current and eventually do not make contact anymore. You hear the
clicking of the solenoid coil moving the plunger,but the contacts are not
completing the circuit for the motor to get power.

Checked the battery's state-of-charge?
Cleaned the cables and connections?
Do that first, then condemn more expensive stuff.
