Was told starter needed replacement. Had it replaced two days ago. So far so good until tonight. I came home from work and left my headlights on. My neighbor called to tell me the car was blinking lights and making a clicking noise. This is all without a key in the ignition. I went out there and could smell an electrical type burning. I turned off the headlights and tried to start the car. Nothing. Radio and lights work still. I took the key out of the ignition and shut the door. Keeps making a clicking noise over and over and over again. Battery only three months old and was tested and measured, I'm told its fine. To stop the clicking I pulled the terminal of the battery.

Two days after getting the starter replaced I have a car that's broken down again. What does this sound like? Starter installation issue? Wiring short? Battery connection short?

Before I replaced the starter the car just didn't start even with a jump. Which is when I had it towed. But never had this bizarre clicking situation and lights flickering, again with no key in the ignition.

Thanks for any input.

the clicking is probably a relay so reconnect it and look under hood fuse box and find the one that clicks. pull it out and it should say which one it is on top of the fuse cover. it kcold be your starter relay . the reason your car didnt' start was that your battery was probably run down form leaving the headlights on. so try charging battery then see what happens. you can also try replacing the starter relay with a like relay to see if your car will start. also on e other thing since you've disconnected your battery reset your security system because when batteries are disconnected that is one of the things you need to do. if you don't have a manual look online on how to reset it.

Thx for the info. Corrosion settled in behind the fuse box hitting the relays. That's the culprit! You were spot on. Thank you again.
