Technical rapid clicking when attempting to crank

sounds like the starter solenoid.

might be battery, it's on charge now. it didnt slow at all before it started clicking.

we're approaching final straws here..
 
The starter could be jammed... get someone to turn it over (attempt to) while hitting the starter with a rubber mallet. It could also be a bad connection.

when i left my screens on my battery went flat, when trying to start all i got was a rapid clicking thrown back at me. i stuck it on charge for 10 minutes, all was well :)
 
just popped into the garage, and turned the key and it cranked over.

its been on charge all night, so its either that or it's just had time to think about what it's done!
 
Any idea what drained it? Seems weird if it was ok previously?

the constant cranking trying to get to trace a trigger fault on the coil packs. the battery is huge, but has not yet been charged from a running engine only trickle charged - so i'm guessing it gave up a little early.

or i overheated the starter/solenoid.
