Engine ignition click sound but wont start

[ar24458]

Hi Peeps.

Sometimes when I turn on the ignition key, the car wont start.
I can hear the click sound under the hood, but seems it doesn't contact well to start the engine.
After several tries the car will start.

What should I check here?

battery terminals are usually the problem, give those a good cleaning

After batt terminals check startermotor connections. Then stater solenoid then the motor itself.

I agree with the above, it might not hurt to add a large ground to your engine block from your ( - ) battery post also.

I agree with everything here! good luck with the diagnostics work
