Thats a gm vechile that has a different color trigger wire then the jeep also other differences.If the battery is good also if your battery cables are clean and tight.Also if its the starter making the clicking sound see if you have battery voltage to the light green wire at the starter with the key in the start position?

WHERE'D A COLORED WIRE COME IN?

I'M JUST TRYIN TO GET 'EM TO ATTACK THEIR CONNECTIONS SERIOUSLY!....MOST PEOPLE JUST SORTA "FINGER THEM" AND MAYBE STICK A PAIR OF PLIERS ON A TERMINAL CLAMP NUT

RECENT HAPPY FELLER SENT ME THIS RESPONSE:

Thanks much...I found the problem.....it was a loose wire close to the starter that I wouldn't have found if it wasn't for your (spit in your face drill sergeant treatment) that I ultimately needed. You saved me a ton of $ from having an auto repair garage diagnose the problem......thanks again.
