What causes a clicking sound on a crankset?
Replacing or repairing bottom brackets is a common task, so it may be worth it to you to pick those tools up. Here are some bottom bracket service instructions: The clicking, only under load and always at the same point of the stroke, can be due to: A bad pedal. I’ve had this a couple of times. The crank arm slipping on the crank.
Why do I hear a clicking noise when I start my riding mower?
The clicking noise comes from a part called the starter solenoid. The solenoid connects the battery to the starter motor when the solenoid is energized. The key switch and the safety switches in the starter circuit combine to energize the solenoid. If the solenoid is clicking, the circuit that triggers it is working.
Why do I hear a clicking sound in my starter?
The clicking sound that you hear is made by the solenoid. This is part of the circuit. However, most of the time, the solenoid is not at the core of the problem. When the solenoid clicks, it hands the positive cable over to the cranking mechanism of the starter.
What to do when motor just clicks when trying to start?
I sprayed the starter gear with WD 40 and moved up and down by hand has worked fine ever since. Its worth a shot. Re: Motor just clicks when trying to start?? HELP

Why does my car make a clicking noise when I start it?
You would probably be right. That dreaded clicking noise can usually be traced to the battery, and the fix could be as simple as a jump-start or tightening a cable. Just one click, though, probably means the fault lies with the starter motor (more on that later). 1. Battery Drained

Why does my Cub Cadet make a clicking sound?
Loose or corroded connections on the heavy black cables that connect the battery ground circuit to the tractor frame, or damage to the black cable. Inspect these connections, remove corrosion and re-establish good electrical contact.
Why are the cranks on my deemar car creaking?
But Deemar has the most likely reason in this case – the cranks are loose on the axle. Think about how a creak is produced. It’s one item sliding over another. But instead of sliding it’s repeatedly sticking then jumping. The amount of movement might only be a fraction of a millimetre. The OP would have noticed if the cranks were really loose.
Where does the clicking sound come from on a bike?
The clicking could be coming from where the pedal joins the crank-arm (with the noise sounding as pressure is placed on the pedal at the top of the stroke). I’ve had this before, tightened the pedal slightly and no more clicking. Similarly, I was never able to generate the correct forces to make it click unless I was on the bike riding
Why are the cranks on my bike creaking?
It sounds like the cranks are loose on the spindle – hence the creak every pedal stroke / 180 degrees. If the cranks have been loose for a while, then the action of riding the bike will have usually rounded either the square taper on the spindle, or the hole on the cranks.

Why does a cartridge BB make a noise?
You can also get noise from a cartridge BB if the cups are not totally tight. No big emergency here, but you need to tighten them to see if that’s the problem. Spokes can make a “ting” sound, especially if the wheel is relatively new.
