Hi Guys and Gals,



My H2 has died in the driveway. I checked the battery and it is all good but when I try to turn it over all I get is a click, click, click noise that seems to be coming from the speakers and under the drivers seat... I am at a loss as to what is causing it.



Any ideas please???



(need it fixed ASAP as the dogs are not allowed in the wifes car!!)

sounds like a bad starter to me.

Try putting it into neutral and trying to start. same result?

check battery connections, try a boost, then suspect a starter.

So , time to replace truck with an H1. <img src='http://www.canadianhummerclub.com/forum ... ght_on.gif' class='bbc_emoticon' alt=':right_on:' />

Ok, Sooooooooooooo my buddy next door had the same problem yesterday as well..... so I checked his battery and it was good... long story short my battery tester is now in the reverend whats him names back yard (at least that the direction I threw it!) across the street.. and I went out and bought a new battery and all is good <img src='http://www.canadianhummerclub.com/forum ... ght_on.gif' class='bbc_emoticon' alt=':right_on:' />



My doggies are now happy again that we can go out (and yes Roy, they are like my kids..... in fact I like them more <img src='http://www.canadianhummerclub.com/forum ... >/wink.gif' class='bbc_emoticon' alt=';)' />

proper voltage does not mean your battery is good,it needs to be cheched for cranking amps.Best way I know is to hook up to an alternate battery source with booster cables after having uncabled the suspect battery.
