the clicking sound means the battery is low or a bad connection.

as said check your connections are good and clean.
might also check the continuity of the wires.

you only have a relay and the s.motor and wires  in the
starting circuit

I have the same issue, but seem to have a strange solution.  Out of habit I always applied my left brake while starting...kept getting the clicking from the relay.  Well...I found that if I use the right hand brake instead of the left while starting it starts right up.  Also if I discovered that if I pulled in the left with a lot of pressure it would also start.

that would be the brake switch is wearing down or
sloppy in the lever. you need a new one.

usually they work or don't  and i check the right side if
i know the battery is full and i get nothing out of the left side
when doing a service/troubleshoot.
