Hello,

Just so cover the basics. Have you tried to jump start the vehicle? Many times, with a weak battery all the lights will come on, but it will only click when try to start the engine.

If when trying to jump start the starter only clicks but not cranks over the engine, then it could be a bad starter or a weak / corroded connection to the starter.
Make sure the starter cable is secured and free of any corrosion.

I have attached diagrams for your reference.

Please let me know if you have any questions.
Thank you.
