Why is my Vauxhall Zafira Life making a clicking noise when I try to start it?

I recently bought a used Vauxhall Zafira Life and have noticed that when I try to start the engine, there is a loud clicking noise coming from the engine bay. What could be causing this and how can I fix it?

It's possible that there could be an issue with the starter motor or the solenoid. It's best to take your car to a mechanic for a diagnosis and to get it fixed properly.

Check your battery connections and make sure they are clean and tight. If they are loose or corroded, this could be causing the clicking noise. Tighten or replace them if necessary.

Another potential cause could be a faulty ignition switch. If this is the case, it's best to have a professional take a look and replace the switch if needed.
