Default Starting Issue

So I have a SC400 that was running fine until recently.

Started clicking when trying to start it. So thought it was the battery going bad. Replaced it and still the same issues, so thought ok its the starter. So I replaced the starter. Same thing. Still just goes click.

Any ideas? The terminals on the battery are clean and tight. Is there any other grounds I can check? Had this problem on my Z and it was a bad ground.

Thanks

Keep bumping the key, starter should eventually kick in as it is more than likely the contacts on your starter are going bad. They are a 10 to 20 dollar item in the starter, but do to the location of the starter on the 400 a pita to replace. Check your grounds first tho.
