If they're clicking, they're doing their job and your problem lies elsewhere.Is the engine turning over? What are the symptoms?

[Ryan3davlin_cb7]

the engine is not turning over i try and start the car and all that happens is the light from the dash come on and everything just fine. but there is just clicking under the dash in that area i have shown. thats it.

Have you checked fuses? connections, grounds? Is it an auto or manual?

[Ryan3davlin_cb7]

ive checked fuses connections and grounds. and its manual. what all grounds are there that i need to check.

[visualpoet]

Major grounds, battery cable, engine to body, etc. Are you sure the battery isn't almost dead? Do the headlights come on good and strong?
Also look under the dash and see if anything behind the clutch pedal looks busted or loose. If the clutch safety switch isn't working, that could be your problem. Especially since the starter is good. It's hard to diagnose a no start over the internet.

yeah i know what you mean bout finding out over the internet. and the clutch switch how am i to know if that is bad. and the lights do come on. im not to sure bout strong but they do come on.

you said its a manual so have you tried popping the clutch to start it? have you checked for spark and fuel? is the starter cranking? i ask this to find out if its properly connected. have you ever had a problem with it not starting before?

it is hard to tell what you took that picture of. it is pretty blurry to me and i cant see what else is around it.

i believe he is asking about the battery to make sure you have enough juice to start the car.

i have pushed started it if thats what you mean by popping the clutch. and when i do that it runs like a champ. and the picture is like right above the fuse box inside the car under the dash.

by popping the clutch i mean start it rolling with the car in 1st gear but your foot on the clutch pushed to the floor. then when you get going a little bit you very quickly pull your foot off the clutch pedal and the car should start.

if you do this and it the car starts and continues to run you know you are getting fuel and spark if the engine keeps running. so after you pop the clutch does the car continue to run or does it shut off again?

[Ryan3davlin_cb7]

the car still runs after popping the clutch. it runs like a champ after that. it just wont start by turning the key.

Check your relays under there. A failing relay can give a clicking noise.
