It sounds like your alternator may have gone out. If your starter is clicking, that means you're lacking spark, which would also point to an alternator issue. I would get it checked out.

the batt. icon appears on the dash or meter drops to 12 V when the alternator fails , the clicking starter means low batt. loose terminals/ connections or bad starter , try a jump start or make sure batt. is charged
It doesn't repeatedly click when key is turned. It only makes one full click then nothing. Battery is fully charged.

then it sounds like the starter is bad if it's the starter that's clicks
Would a bad starter make the car stall while driving it? Like It died and well I tried to start it again and I don't hear it cranking over, I had battery replaced, I even had the Alternator looked at and all good. But the battery light keeps coming on? Any ideas?
Mine is a 2002 Saturn Lw, 200, 2.2 Twin Cam. I know their shit motors, but can't afford a new one right now, Only wife working. lol. I just need some ideas on what it could be, thanks.
