Sounds like the starter.just make sure to keep the battery %100. If it clicks, see if you can turn your lights on. If you can’t recharge the battery it might be the alternator. If you can and you try to turn over and it clicks or sounds like grinding, it’s probably the starter. Make sure the positive and negative wires are secure to the battery posts as well.
