when I went to leave my 74 TR6 just made a one-time clicking noice on the right
side (by the fuse box) every time I turned the key but would not turn over. I
turned the battery disconnect on and off a couple times and it started right up.</div><div><br></div><div> Fast forward to today it did the same thing, started up from home no problem,
but would not start when I went to leave, I again fooled with the battery disconnect
and got it running. Ran a few errands and started up no problem each time. Got
home it would not start. I hooked up my charger battery pack, and it started
right up. I assumed it was the battery so took my old one in they did confirm
it was bad.</div><div><br></div><div> I bought a new battery and now continue to just getting a clicking
noice (not by the starter but seems to be coming from the relays by the fuse
box even with my battery pack hooked up to the new battery. Things I have trouble
shot:</div>

<p class="ydpfee43bdfMsoNormal">The starter is an older gear reduction starter and before I
look to replace it wanted to see if anyone had any suggestions. Also, what is
making the click by the fuse box? Could that be something?</p>
